LPI at ACTE CareerTech VISION 2026: Open Source Careers for CTE

- December 2-5, 2026
- New Orleans, Louisiana, United States
- Ernest N. Morial Convention Center
Linux Professional Institute (LPI) will participate in ACTE’s CareerTech VISION 2026, the premier event for career and technical education (CTE) professionals and the centerpiece of ACTE’s centennial celebration marking 100 years of leadership, innovation, and impact in CTE.
CareerTech VISION convenes more than 6,000 secondary and postsecondary educators, business leaders, and industry experts from around the world. This four-day event represents the largest annual gathering in the CTE community, bringing together the decision-makers and educators who define curricula for career-related training programs across the United States.
LPI and Career Technical Education
Career and Technical Education programs prepare students for high-demand careers across industries increasingly dependent on technology infrastructure. Linux and open source skills represent essential foundations for technology career pathways, from IT administration and cybersecurity to cloud computing and DevOps.
LPI will showcase certification pathways, learning materials, and career opportunities in the open source industry. The event provides an opportunity to connect with CTE program leaders who are shaping workforce development curricula and preparing students for technology careers.
Vendor-Neutral Credentials for CTE Programs
LPI’s vendor-neutral approach aligns naturally with CTE program objectives. Institutions can integrate globally recognized Linux and open source certifications into career pathways without committing to single-vendor technology stacks. This flexibility allows programs to focus on foundational skills while giving students credentials valued across industries.
LPI provides learning materials, exam delivery, and credential management that integrate with existing CTE infrastructure, reducing implementation barriers for schools and colleges.
Honoring a Century of Career Education
CareerTech VISION 2026 honors ACTE’s legacy while engaging with leaders and experts shaping the future of education and workforce development. The centennial celebration recognizes CTE’s critical role in preparing students for meaningful careers and addressing workforce needs across sectors.
