The DC Career Academy Network (DC CAN) supports the establishment and continued development of NAF career academies at DC public and public charter high schools. DC CAN promotes the District’s mission to strengthen the pipeline to college and careers, as envisioned in the District’s 2013 Career and Technical (CTE) Strategic Plan, as revised.

The Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE) provides local funding to Local Education Agencies (LEAs) for the implementation of academies within eligible campuses. These funds cover academy personnel (for two years) and academy activities.
