About Kevin R. Johnson Ed. D

With over four years of experience as a Senior Advisor at Advance CTE, I lead strategic initiatives aimed at enhancing access to high-quality Career Technical Education (CTE) programs. My work includes managing the Postsecondary State Career Technical Education Leaders Fellowship, sponsored by the ECMC Foundation, and supporting Opportunity Gap Analysis Technical Assistance across 46 states to address disparities in access to educational opportunities. My expertise in program management, strategic planning, and policy analysis drives my commitment to improving postsecondary outcomes for all learners. Collaborating with national and state stakeholders, I focus on leveraging data and policy solutions to close access gaps and foster high-performing education systems. My dedication to service and community impact is a consistent thread throughout my career.
