what is cte?

  • CTE gives students a foundation for career success by integrating rigorous academic content with job-specific technical skills and hands-on learning. 
  • CTE allows students to see the relevance of their academic preparation while participating in educational activities designed to prepare students to gain entry-level employment in high-skill, high-wage, and high-demand occupations or continue their education in a chosen career field.
  • CTE is organized by a national framework of 16 Career Clusters. Each cluster presents a range of related career options to students, helps them discover their interests, and empowers them to choose the educational pathway that can lead to success in high school, college, and their chosen career.
