Resource CTE Team at the LEAD CTE Fall Conference
Our CTE team—Alison Orgaard, CTE Manager, and Jonah Baten, Data Coach—are part of the planning committee for the LEAD Career & Technical Education (CTE) Network Fall Conference, September 21–22, 2025, at the Best Western Kelly Inn & St. Cloud Convention Center in St. Cloud. LEAD CTE is being piloted this year to train admin and school leaders on the intricacies of CTE funding, programming, and development.
The conference is held alongside the CTE Teacher Induction Program, which is a development group that supports early career teachers through networking, coaching, and connections with statewide experts and peers. This approach helps new educators share resources, curricula, and best practices while building stronger connections to the CTE profession.
If you’re attending, be sure to connect with Alison and Jonah while you’re there!

Patriot Day – September 11
Tomorrow, we take time to honor and remember September 11, 2001. We recognize the courage of first responders, the resilience of survivors, and the strength of communities that came together in the days and years that followed.
At Resource Training & Solutions, we value the power of unity, service, and compassion—qualities that continue to inspire the work we do alongside schools and communities across central Minnesota. 🇺🇸
