Description
The Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) is seeking a high school, semester-long Career and Technical Education (CTE) work-ethics-focused curriculum, provisionally named Work Ethics First, with a proven track record of successful implementation. The curriculum should empower students to make career choices based on the dignity, demand, and good-paying, lifelong employment in the skilled trades as an alternative to a career requiring a university degree. The offeror should provide five student access codes and five instructor/teacher access codes to support the Government's technical evaluation of the proposed solution.
Key features of the job include:
• Balancing the Career Narrative: highlighting the dignity, demand, and good-paying, lifelong employment in the skilled trades
• Focusing on Character over Compliance: instilling a proactive work ethic as a primary life skill, framing gratitude for the freedoms that those living in America enjoy and personal accountability as core components of career success
• Instructor Certification and Professional Learning: providing comprehensive instructor enablement materials and/or virtual onboarding for all participating educators, district CTE Instructional System Specialists, and HQ CTE Instructional System Specialists
