Check out our TECs at the BRCC White Coat Ceremony!  https://www.wafb.com/2023/08/16/new-nursing-program-help-young-high-schoolers-break-into-field-early/

We need your help to ensure our students are focused and preparing for their career choice at CTEC.  No electronic devices (cell phones, earbuds, cell watches, headphones, etc.) should be on or out while at CTEC except for during breakfast (arrival until 7:05) and lunch (10:35-11:15).  All students will be expected to put away these electronic devices during instructional time.  Students not following CTEC guidelines will be disciplined according to the EBR Parish Rights and Responsibilities Handbook. 

Thank you for your support! 

• CTEC is a specialized program for high school students in the Capital region. Students get hands-on training in a small group environment by instructors who are credentialed and have worked in their craft area.

• Students from our high schools can apply to attend CTEC for ½ day progamming that allows them to take specialized courses, many of which are dual enrollment courses with BRCC. 

• By still attending their home school, students have the flexibility of a specialized college type experience but also access to high school courses, extracurricular activities, and other high school experiences.
