Deer Valley CTE

Post date: Aug 13, 2019 8:47:25 PM

On April 1st, I represented Glendale Community College's Fitness and Wellness Department at Deer Valley Unified School District's Career and Technical Education event. I was assigned to a group with various stakeholders and we brainstormed ideas and suggestions for the program. I really enjoyed networking with the attendees and discussing ideas, but I was not really the target audience for this event. Their goal was determine if students leaving their program are ready for the workforce and I am not an employer. Also, the DVUSD CTE program has personal training courses that students can take in high school to become certified and eligible for personal training jobs. As I continue to work with the DVUSD's CTE program I would like to promote our Personal Training Certificates and Degrees. The additional knowledge, education, and credentials they would gain here at Glendale Community College will make them better qualified and more competitive for jobs.
