Public Policy Department staff members serve as liaisons to the Resolutions Committee and CTE Support Fund Committee, as well as to the ACTER Board. In addition, the department works with task forces addressing significant policy issues on an as-needed basis. Some of these task forces have been focused on developing recommendations while others operate in a feedback capacity when legislative initiatives are introduced. Although not a specific department, ACTE’s focus on strategic partnerships is an important aspect of our work. ACTE seeks to develop formal partnerships with many businesses, industries, trade organizations, foundations and other entities which can either provide revenue, content, services or some other tangible support to ACTE and its members. It is important that these partnerships also contribute to the goals and priorities of the partnering organizations. The deputy executive director works on a strategy to implement the Strategic Partnerships work. However, the work is conducted in close collaboration with the senior director of programs and communications and the sales and exhibits manager. This group forms what is called the Strategic Partnerships and Sponsors (SPAS) Group which meets regularly to prioritize, discuss coordination of activities, targets and other implementation strategies related to the work. The SPAS charts progress on outreach to potential partners and provides regular updates to the Board of Directors on progress. ACTE leaders are encouraged to provide suggestions of potential partners that they believe ACTE should approach to discuss potential partnership.
