Career and Technical Education Student Organizations

What is a   CTSO?

A Career and Technical Education Student Organization (CTSO) is an organization that engages in career and technical education activities as an integral part of the instructional program. CTSO's provide opportunities to develop and refine the skills students need in their chosen occupational area. Conferences, competitions, workshops, community services and other activities encourage leadership development and career exploration. 

How do I get involved?

Davenport Central, North, and West offer FCCLA, FBLA, and SkillsUSA chapters that students can be apart of. 

Contact your CTE Teacher for details.
