Students attending CTEC are designated as TECs (Trainees Earning Credentials). The CTEC curriculum empowers TECs to develop a strong professional work ethic, engage in immersive work-based learning opportunities, and navigate real-world industry scenarios. Through this coursework, students can earn high-value industry credentials and, in select programs, dual enrollment college credits. CTEC operates as a premier collaborative partnership uniting the K-12 school system, the regional business community, and Baton Rouge Community College (BRCC).
