As part of the ongoing commitment to regional economic growth, the Mount Rogers Regional Partnership (MRRP) solicited a comprehensive feasibility study and action plan to analyze the gaps between middle school career exploration to classroom-to-career training opportunities in high school. The Virginia Tech Center for Economic and Community Engagement (CECE), in collaboration with the Center for Rural education (CRE), and the Virginia Tech Southwest Center, developed a report to enhance Career and Technical Education (CTE) and workforce readiness in the Mount Rogers region of Virginia.
