What is CTE?

Career and Technical Education (CTE) combines academic learning with hands-on training to prepare students for both college and careers. It covers a wide range of fields such as healthcare, technology, and skilled trades, offering real-world experience and industry-recognized certifications. These programs not only enhance student engagement, but also provide pathways to industry-recognized certifications and higher earning potential. CTE has a higher focus on practical experience rather than academic testing that AP and IB courses are known for. This equips students with the tools necessary for meaningful and sustainable careers.
