Career and

Technical Education in the EUP

What is Career and

Technical Education

(CTE)?

Career and Technical Education provides job skills to high school students, allowing them to join workforce after graduation. This may encourage students to pursue additional training and/or university/community college coursework, trade schools, or apprenticeships. CTE prepares the qualified

workforce for the future. https://www.acteonline.org/cte

What is the goal?

The goal is to provide each high school student in the EUP region with at least two CTE opportunities,

plus entrepreneurial training, while providing job skills to live and work in the EUP.

What makes CTE different?

• CTE programs provide marketable skills

• CTE programs are required to have a local

advisory board of employers to guide them

• CTE programs articulate free credits upon

program completion with community colleg-

es and universities

• Many CTE programs offer industry, state or

national certifications to students
