The 60th Annual FACTE Conference provided an incredible opportunity for FAHSE members to learn, connect, and grow while joining colleagues from across Florida in celebrating 100 years of Career and Technical Education representation. This milestone served as a meaningful reminder of CTE's rich history and the generations of educators, industry partners, and advocates who have helped shape opportunities for students and strengthen Florida's workforce.

Throughout the conference, the FAHSE experience brought health science educators together through professional learning, collaboration, and shared experiences. From engaging educational sessions and presentations to program tours showcasing innovation in health science education, members had opportunities to exchange ideas, discover new resources, and build relationships with colleagues who share a commitment to preparing the next generation of healthcare professionals.

The 100 Years of CTE Educational Expo added another dimension to the celebration, highlighting the diversity, innovation, and impact of CTE programs across the state. For FAHSE, it was an opportunity to proudly represent health science education as an essential part of the CTE community and recognize the important role our educators and programs play in developing Florida's healthcare workforce.

More than anything, the experience reflected what makes the FAHSE community special: educators coming together to share expertise, support one another, celebrate successes, and return to their programs with renewed energy and ideas. As we honor the legacy of CTE, we are equally excited about what comes next and the role FAHSE members will continue to play in shaping its future.

Learn. Connect. Grow.
