Process: A Team Approach
Develop a team approach to integrate academic and career/technical education. There must be a total commitment and dedication from the entire team of school supporters involved in the integration process. The team would consist of VPI managers and career/technical instructors, as well as curriculum builders, academic instructors, and representatives of business.

The team identifies areas and activities that integrate academic and career/technical instruction, as well as methods of delivery. It develops the topics to be taught during a grading period, compares the topics to the math, reading, and language competencies required, and creates infusion of the career/technical and academic instruction.
