Navigating Student Discipline in Career-Technical Education Programs
Thursday, October 8 · 2:15 PM – 3:00 PM · Dublin C
Student discipline looks different when students are operating heavy equipment, earning industry credentials, participating in work-based learning, and learning in environments designed to mirror the workplace. This session examines the unique discipline issues facing career-technical schools and programs, including safety concerns, due process, home district and employer partnerships, and off-campus conduct. Through practical examples and recent legal developments, attendees will gain tools to make sound, defensible discipline decisions while supporting student success.
