SUHSD Work-Based Learning

What is CTE?

Career Technical Education (CTE) is a program of study that involves a multi-year sequence of courses that integrates core academic knowledge with technical and occupational knowledge to provide students with a pathway to postsecondary education and careers.  Many pathways are also dual-enrolled, allowing students to earn college credits while also earning high school credits for the same course.  

What is Work-Based Learning?
