CTE

Career Technical Education (CTE) is an educational model that aligns high (or secondary) school and post-secondary education to labor market demand, and provides students with the technical, academic, and employability knowledge and skills they need for success.  CTE prepares students for post-secondary education, the military, the workforce, and life.

What is a CTE Pathway?

A CTE Pathway is a sequence of two or more CTE courses within a student’s area of career interest.  Pathways are designed to connect high school classes to college, industry certifications, and/or a career, and pathway completion provides students with evidence of their college and career readiness as measured by the state College/Career Indicators.
