Career Education, also known as Career Technical Education (CTE), provides students with skills and job opportunities in dozens of careers.
The wide-ranging Career Education programs offer courses that are both academic and career-oriented. Our students are ready for a diverse range of high-skill, in-demand careers. Our cutting-edge programs provide students with hands-on experience through applied course work and work-based learning opportunities to prepare them for a career, or to prepare them to transfer to a four-year institution.
Career Education works closely with industry to give students practical courses and access to state-of-the-art technology. Our programs are building a strong regional workforce.
