Mills looks to fill 'critical' funding need in Maine career and tech ed centers

By Staff
During a tour of the Foster Career and Technical Education Center in Farmington on Friday, Gov. Janet Mills pitched the need to invest in all 27 centers statewide and touted their importance to the state's economy.
“Jobs in the trades bring with them good skills and good pay, as well as stable, lifelong careers, but it’s been decades since we’ve invested in the upgrades our career and technical education centers need to train students to fill those jobs,” said Mills.
She has proposed spending $20 million on program, facility and equipment upgrades for Maine's CTEs as part of the Maine Jobs & Recovery Plan, funded by the $1 billion in federal relief funds allocated to Maine under the American Rescue Plan.
