November 12-13, 2026
Delta Hotels Minneapolis Northeast, Minneapolis, MN
Join Minnesota’s biggest gathering of career and technical education professionals on November 12 and 13 at Delta Hotels Minneapolis Northeast.
Since 2009, the Summit has brought together secondary and postsecondary teachers and faculty, administrators, counselors, workforce partners, business and industry, and community leaders. It has grown into the Upper Midwest’s premier CTE conference, a place to share what works, solve shared challenges, and build the connections that help students succeed.
This year’s theme, The Human Connection: Linking People, Ideas, and Opportunity, celebrates the people who carry learners from the classroom to a career. When every link holds, students move forward with confidence.
