The purpose of the New Look Project is to assist secondary and post secondary career and technical educators in identifying, developing, and strengthening aspects of programming for special populations learners.
Formerly the NTO (nontraditional occupations) Look, the New Look Project has an expanded goal to assist secondary and post secondary career and technical educators in identifying and strengthening aspects of their programming for all special populations learners. This award-winning model supports career and technical education programs at several different levels of investment through monetary awards, technical assistance, and professional development.
