Why Choose CTE??

In today’s competitive society, continuing your education beyond high school is extremely important. Students have many choices of vocational schools, community colleges and four-year colleges and universities to choose from. However; once you have decided on the type of school that best suits your needs, what will you choose to MAJOR in once you get there?

In total, about 12.5 million high school and college students are enrolled in CTE courses across the nation. CTE prepares these learners for the world of work by introducing them to workplace competencies as well as learn how core school subjects like math, science, etc are used in real-life situations. At its core, the mission of CTE is to prepare students for success in college and careers by helping them develop the skills, technical knowledge, academic rigor and real-world experience for high-skill, high-demand and highly successful careers.

Many programs offer you the opportunity to earn nationally recognized certifications which you can use to get a job, that will help you pay for college or start off your career straight out of high school.
