CACTE GOVERNING DOCUMENTS
Information about CACTE Governance
CACTE Bylaws
The CACTE bylaws govern the way CACTE operates in general terms, and is in accordance with the ACTE bylaws.
The bylaws were last amended by an electronic vote of the membership ahead of the Annual Business Meeting in July 2025 during the CACTE Summit.
​
CACTE Policies & Procedures Manual, PPM
The PPM is a complementary document to the Bylaws and prescribes the more “nitty gritty” operations of the Association.
A housekeeping revision was made to the Division listing on page 16 (ACE and COWBL) in November 2025. A major revision was approved by the Board in July 2025.

2026-2027 CACTE Program of Work
Based on the ACTE Strategic Themes, Colorado ACTE will focus on these three priorities during 2026-2027. The CACTE Executive Committee, CACTE Board, CACTE Divisions and CACTE Committees will use these priorities to direct our work for the year.
The full Program of Work, which is a living document, includes specific strategies to help ensure progress towards the priorities.
STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS
With strong support at the national level from ACTE and state collaboration with the Colorado Community College System (CCCS), CACTE is well-positioned to liaise between business leaders, education leaders, and policymakers. By developing and maintaining key relationships at the local, regional and state level, our members are better equipped to develop these same skills for advisory committees and Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs).
MEMBER VALUE & ENGAGEMENT
CACTE’s success relies on the success of its divisions, committees and members. Strengthening and supporting leadership and alignment throughout the CACTE infrastructure will increase both capacity and member value.
​​
PROFESSIONAL & LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
​CACTE will plan professional development to build capacity and confidence so that CACTE members grow as learners and leaders. High-quality professional development is made available through a variety of delivery channels.
