Career Technical Education
Career Technical Education
Career and Technical Education fulfills an increasingly significant role in school reform efforts. Students who concentrate in a CTE area are better prepared for the further education and advanced training required to be successful in 21st century careers. C.D Owen High School Career and Technical Education teachers partner with business and industry and with community colleges and other post-secondary institutions to ensure Career and Technical Education serves the needs of individual students. Career and Technical Education serves as a bridge between academic courses and the real world. CTE helps students apply concepts learned in their academic classes to situations they will face in their careers.
