（掌声）

奥巴马夫人：大家好！

你们都好吗？

请大家休息一下。

首先我要感谢 雅各布的精彩

介绍和 分享你的故事。

太棒了。

这很鼓舞人心。

这就是原因 我们做我们所做的。

只是听听您如何 坚持了下来，现在您已经

上了一些伟大的人生课程，例如 荷兰酱和

蛋黄酱。

（笑声）

我以为我很高兴 让玛丽亚做一些

炒鸡蛋。

（笑声）

但我们为你感到骄傲 我们很高兴

你是领导者 你就是。

所以让我们给雅各布 又是一阵掌声。

（掌声）

我还要感谢 教育工作者、

慈善家、公众 以及今天出席的私营部门领导人

。

大家好。

欢迎。

但最重要的是，我想 感谢

在这里的所有学生。

让我看看我们的学生 ——你在哪里？

我能看出来。

（掌声）

还有站着的年轻人 起来，我喜欢你这一点。

（笑声）

就像，我在这里。

观众：可以 我们稍后拍张照片吗？

奥巴马夫人：稍后合影。

（笑声）

现在，这就是领导力。

（笑声）

但不仅仅是学生 在这个房间里，但有

数千名年轻人 谁从全国会议远程加入我们

为技术学生

协会以及 美国未来商业领袖

。

大家好 你们所有人也是如此。

（掌声）

确实是学生们 全国各地正在

学习、学习和 梦想远大——你们都是

真正的原因 为什么我们今天在这里。

我们来这里是因为 我们相信你。

我们愿意。

绝对是我们 相信你。

我们来这里是因为我们想要 确保你得到

所有技能和工具 您需要实现

您的梦想。

那些梦想太棒了 而且它们很大，而且

很大，所以你需要全部 您可以获得的支持。

我们来这里是因为我们知道

实现这一目标的最佳方法之一就是通过职业生涯 和技术教育——CTE。

而且我不知道有多少 人们了解 CTE，但更多的人应该了解 CTE，因为

在当今世界，高中文凭

只是还不够。

我说得还不够。

高中文凭不是 足以能够参加今天的

比赛 经济全球化。

如果你想学习 尖端技能，如果您

想做好准备 大学和良好的职业生涯，

如果你想进入 像 Jacob 这样的烹饪艺术，或者

开创自己的事业，或者 在医院工作，或者

进入 3D 打印——无论什么 确实如此，对于

名学生来说，认识到这一点很重要 四年制大学并不是

您唯一的选择。

这不是您唯一的选择。

我们谈论四年 大学一直如此，

但是当我们谈论 达到更高，我们谈论

完成高中学业并 以任何

方式、形状或形式超越，并且 它并不总是

四年制大学。

事实上，对于许多年轻人来说 人和他们的家人，

CTE 可能是最好的选择 因为您可以获得所有

专业技能 需要在

高需求领域找到一份好工作，而您 只需

时间的一小部分即可完成，而且更多 重要的是，与 四年制大学。

...

更重要的是，这些是

推动学生学业进步的高质量课程 并挑战学生

提高他们的批判性 思考，他们的

问题解决，他们的 沟通技巧——正如

，我们可以从雅各布身上看到，他 所有这些都同时发生

。

越来越多地——还有这个 非常重要——有

通常是作业结束时 它，一张薪水就在那儿等着

你 当你毕业时。

大学不多 毕业生经常可以这么说。

所以职业和技术项目 很有意义。

这就是为什么跨越 国家、学校和

企业正在努力 共同开发

课程，即 令人兴奋，让学生

能够获得量身定制的课程 对于

公司实际的职位 需要填写。

这就是高中的原因 与社区

大学合作，让年轻人 人们可以获得大学

学分，有时甚至 带着

专业人士离开高中 证件在手。

我在高中演讲

国家/地区的毕业典礼，我总是 当学生们上来说他们是

时，我印象深刻 已经准备好进入

他们的领域。

令人印象深刻。

每天，学生们都在 通过这些机会获得实践经验

在医院和企业、

学校等等 其他地方。

我的员工告诉我 有人在 65 英尺高度上获得

经验

海洋中的研究船——那就是 发生在某处。

你们知道这个吗？

太酷了， 很酷。

还有这些 机遇正在引发

一波创新浪潮 来自我们的年轻人。

这里是创新博览会 今天，我知道

我们将看到 将发射到的四英寸立方体卫星

轨道来帮助我们研究和

分析我们的 大气和土壤。

很酷。

是的，哇。

我同意。

（笑声）

有一个激光系统 检测

棒球击球区的传感器 -- 用于 所有棒球迷，我

确信这非常令人兴奋。

（笑声）

还有一台 3D 打印机 创作巧克力雕塑

——是的，大家 喜欢那个。

（笑声）

每个人都可以 与此联系。

所以 CTE 程序就像这样 对学生有好处

，因为他们可以学习 新技能并找到

他们的热情。

它们对企业有利 因为他们可以利用

的熟练人才管道。

而且它们对我们有好处 国家，因为这些

计划帮助我们发展我们的 经济，与其他

个国家竞争，并释放 下一代

企业家 和创新者。

这就是为什么，早些时候 那一年，我丈夫扩张了

美国 总统学者

计划旨在表彰我们的一些 在职业和教育方面最优秀和最聪明的学生

技术教育。

今年夏天晚些时候，我们将 将推出

Reach High Career 应用程序 挑战是因为我们希望

让学生更轻松 在全国范围内寻找适合的

CTE 计划 他们的热情和

他们的目标。

所以我知道我们有一些 今天在座的各位来自我们

最大的科技公司，以及 我想挑战你们所有人以及全世界的

人 国家 -- 教育工作者、职业

顾问、我们的业务 领导们，大家，

我希望你们能拿出你们的头脑 一起思考

种设计新应用的方法 我们将帮助学生

与这些项目建立联系 以及他们

实现梦想所需的工作。

我希望你能帮助我们 学生们了解哪些工作在

中需求量很大 他们的社区。

我希望你帮助他们了解 哪些计划为他们提供了所需的

技能。

我也希望你能帮忙 他们计算出所有

的费用以及他们的费用 未来的盈利能力可能

在该特定领域。

我的意思是，你可以想象 对于一个可能没有

积极性的孩子来说，如果他们找到了工作 头衔和薪水，他们可以

了解其目的 所有——我们一直

试图做到这一点 我们的年轻人。

所以想象一下如果这一切都可以的话 通过应用程序发生。

有很多事情 应用程序可能适合我们的

年轻人，我们希望看到 你们所有人都会想出什么

。

本次挑战正式 将在

周后推出，但现在您可以 前往 edprizes.com 注册

以获取更新并 获取更多信息。

所以我希望你们都接受 挑战，看看我们能想出什么

。

但是对于所有年轻人 这里的人们，我希望你们

知道我们正在做的事情 我们将竭尽全力

帮助您满足您的需求 潜力，是否

让您更容易 只需使用智能手机

即可找到职业道路； 这是否是我的

丈夫所做的一切 降低高等教育

的成本，并最终 免费提供两年制社区

所大学 负责任的学生。

这是我们的希望 -

（掌声）

除了 我们所做的一切

都取决于您 学生也做你的

部分。

这意味着对于所有 你在这里，我知道你已经

这样做了，但我 说得还不够——我们

需要你们所有人 把它放在一起。

尽你所能努力学习。

将所有内容放入您的 你可以做的研究。

为自己争取更高的目标 每一天。

无论你是否做到了 这些精彩的 CTE

计划之一，或者您是否参加 进入社区大学，

四年制大学 -- 无论你做什么，你都需要

(applause)

Mrs. Obama: Hello, everyone!

How are you all doing?

Please rest yourselves.

Let me start by thanking Jacob for that wonderful

introduction and for sharing your story.

It is amazing.

It's inspiring.

It is the reason why we do what we do.

Just hearing how you persevered and now you've gone

on to great life lessons like hollandaise sauce and

béarnaise sauce.

(laughter)

And I thought I was happy to have Malia make some

scrambled eggs.

(laughter)

But we're so proud of you and we're so glad that

you're the leader that you are.

So let's give Jacob another round of applause.

(applause)

I also want to thank the educators, the

philanthropists, the public and private sector leaders

that are here today.

Hello to all of you.

Welcome.

But most of all, I want to thank all the students that

are here.

Let me see our students -- where are you?

I can sort of tell.

(applause)

And the young man who stood up, I like that in you.

(laughter)

It's like, here I am.

Audience Member: Can we get a picture later?

Mrs. Obama: A picture later.

(laughter)

Now, that's leadership.

(laughter)

But not just the students in this room, but there are

thousands of young people who are joining us remotely

from national conferences for the Technology Students

Association as well as the Future Business Leaders

of America.

So hi out there to all of you as well.

(applause)

And really it's the students across the country who are

studying and learning and dreaming big -- you all are

really the reason why we're here today.

We're here because we believe in you.

We do.

Absolutely we believe in you.

We're here because we want to make sure that you get

all the skills and the tools that you need to reach

your dreams.

And those dreams are amazing and they're big and they're

huge, so you need all the support you can get.

We're here because we know that one of the best ways to

do that is through career and technical education -- CTE.

And I don't know how many people know about CTE, but

more people should, because in today's world, a high

school diploma just isn't enough.

I can't say that enough.

A high school diploma is not enough to be able to compete

in today's globalizing economy.

If you want to learn cutting-edge skills, if you

want to prepare yourself for college and a good career,

if you want to go into the culinary arts like Jacob, or

start your own business, or work in a hospital, or go

into 3D printing -- whatever it is, it's important for

students to realize that a four-year university is not

your only option.

It is not your only option.

We talk about four-year universities all the time,

but when we talk about Reach Higher, we talk about

completing high school and going beyond in whatever

way, shape or form, and it's not always a

four-year university.

In fact, for many young people and their families,

CTE can be the best option because you can get all the

professional skills you need for a good job in a

high-demand field and you can do it at a fraction of

the time and, more importantly, a fraction of

the cost as compared to a four-year university.

More importantly, these are high-quality programs that

push students academically and challenge students to

sharpen their critical thinking, their

problem-solving, their communication skills -- as

we can see with Jacob, who had all that going on

all at once.

And increasingly -- and this is very important -- there's

often a job at the end of it, a paycheck waiting for

you right there when you graduate.

And not a lot of college graduates can often say that.

So Career and Tech programs make a whole lot of sense.

And that's why across the country, schools and

businesses are working together to develop

curricula, which is exciting, so that students

can get tailor-made courses for the positions that

companies actually need to fill.

This is why high schools are partnering up with community

colleges so that young people can earn college

credit and sometimes even leave high school with

professional credentials in hand.

And I speak at high school graduations all around the

country, and I'm always impressed when students come

up and say that they're already ready to launch into

their field.

It's quite impressive.

And every day, students are getting hands-on experience

through these opportunities at hospitals and businesses,

schools and just about everywhere else.

My staff tells me that somebody is getting

experience on a 65-foot research vessel out in the

ocean -- that's happening somewhere.

You guys know about this?

It's pretty cool, pretty cool.

And these kinds of opportunities are leading to

a wave of innovation from our young people.

Here at the Innovation Fair today, I understand that

we're going to see a four-inch cube satellite

that will be launched into orbit to help us study and

analyze our atmosphere and soil.

Pretty cool.

Yes, wow.

I agree.

(laughter)

There's a system of laser sensors that detect a

baseball strike zone -- for all you baseball fans, I'm

sure that's very exciting.

(laughter)

And a 3D printer that creates chocolate sculptures

-- yes, everybody likes that one.

(laughter)

Everybody can connect with that.

So CTE programs like these are good for students

because they can learn new skills and find

their passion.

They're good for businesses because they can tap into a

pipeline of skilled talent.

And they're good for our country because these

programs help us grow our economy, compete with other

countries, and unleash the next generation of

entrepreneurs and innovators.

And that's why, earlier this year, my husband expanded

the United States Presidential Scholars

program to honor some of our best and brightest students

in Career and Technical Education.

And later this summer, we're going to be launching the

Reach Higher Career App Challenge because we want to

make it easier for students across the country to find a

CTE program that fits with their passions and with

their goals.

So I know we've got some folks here today from our

biggest tech companies, and I want to challenge all of

you and people across the country -- educators, career

counselors, our business leaders, everyone out there,

I want you to put your heads together and think about

ways to design a new app so that we'll help students

connect with the programs and the jobs they need to

realize their dreams.

I want you to help our students see which jobs are

in high demand in their communities.

I want you to help them see which programs give them the

skills that they need.

And I also want you to help them figure out how much all

of this costs and what their future earning power might

be in that given field.

I mean, you can imagine for a kid who may not be

motivated, if they see a job title and a salary, they can

understand the purpose of it all -- which we're always

trying to do with our young people.

So imagine if all that could happen through an app.

There are so many things an app might do for our young

people and we want to see what all of you will come

up with.

This challenge officially launches in a couple of

weeks, but right now you can go to edprizes.com to sign

up for updates and to get more information.

So I hope you all take up the challenge and see what

we can come up with.

But to all of the young people here, I want you all

to know that we're doing everything that we can to

help you fill your potential, whether that's

making it easier for you to find career pathways just by

using your smartphone; whether it's everything my

husband is doing to bring down the cost of higher

education and ultimately make two-year community

colleges free for responsible students.

That's a hope that we -

(applause)

We're also, in addition to all that we're doing, we're

depending on you as the students to do your

part as well.

And that means for all of you here, I know you're

already doing it, but I can't say it enough -- we

need you all to just get it together.

To study as hard as you can.

To put everything into your studies that you can do.

Reach higher for yourselves every single day.

There has to be a hunger that you all have that no

one can fund for you.

There can be no policy written to make you find

your -- to prioritize your education.

It's on you guys.

And every day you have to come in with that hunger.

You got to be ready.

You got to be studying.

You got to be in class.

If you're online, you got to be there.

You got to do those assignments, make it

all happen.

So you've got to finish the job.

No one can do that for you.

Not the President, not the First Lady.

I don't care how much money is out there, if you don't

have it here and here -- it's not going to happen.

So we want you to complete your education.

That is a must.

There is no alternative.

Finish your education.

Whether you do it through one of these fantastic CTE

programs, or whether you go on to a community college,

four-year college -- whatever you do, you've got

to finish your education.

But you've got to get something.

You've got to get a degree, a certificate -- something

you've got to have.

And if you do that, you'll have the tools that you'll

need to fulfill your dreams.

And as you work to get your education -- I want to close

with what I said at the outset -- just know that we

believe in you.

We do all of this because we know you have the raw

material that it takes to do whatever is in your heart to do.

Barack and I know this because we stand where we

are today because we had a lot of support and we had

something in our hearts and minds that told us that we

could do it.

So we believe in you -- all right?

If you don't walk away from this with any other message,

is that you've got a whole lot of folks who think you

can be great, and you've got a country who actually needs

you to be great.

We're counting on you to be that next generation to take

over all that we're doing.

So you got to be trained, you got to be ready, you got

to be hungry, and you got to take advantage of every

opportunity that comes your way.

So keep up the great work.

I hope you have a phenomenal time here at the White House.

Ask a lot of questions.

Be impressive.

Don't be shy.

(laughter)

I don't have to tell that to you.

(laughter)

And just know that we are going to keep working as

hard as we can -- not just here in the White House,

but beyond.

Mentoring you and raising the next generation up to be

great is something -- it's a personal goal for me

and my husband.

So we're only getting started.

So we're hoping that you'll be ready to partner with us

when we get out of here.

Okay?

(laughter)

So I look forward to everything you all will do

in the years ahead.

Enjoy the conference.

You all, thank you so much for being here on behalf of

our young people.

Put your heads together; let's figure out what more

we can do to keep these kids moving in the

right direction.

Thank you all.

(applause)
