Career and Technical Education
The Career and Technical Education department prepares students for both post-secondary education and the world of work. We provide educational opportunities covering industry- specific skill training and credentialing, general employability skills, academic and career skill integration, and personal enrichment to students from high schools across the region. Our students are prepared for current and future educational and workplace opportunities through hands-on learning, authentic workplace experiences, and classroom instruction.
Courses are offered in the following career clusters:
- Architecture/Construction
- Business and Management
- Hospitality and Tourism
- Human Services
- Transportation, Distribution, and Logistics (TDL)
These courses provide important benefits to students including career awareness and exploration, applied learning of academic skills, and an array of other outcomes, such as positive habits of mind, strong thinking skills, and the opportunity to learn about oneself and others. Some of these courses also provide in-depth knowledge and experience in a specific career field. Many courses may be taken without prerequisites.
