This peer network is the resource and information-sharing forum for state vocational and technical education professionals. A joint initiative between the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Vocational and Adult Education and the states, this site provides a peer-to-peer forum for states to improve their capacity to collect quality data as it relates to the Perkins accountability requirements and to promote quality vocational and technical education programs. The focal point of this site is peer collaboration -- a participant-driven medium that fosters communication and the exchange of innovative ideas and approaches among states. So join your peers in building high quality performance systems and outstanding vocational programs!
