Exploring Careers
CTEC has a Career Services center with a full-time counselor available to meet with students. The center is used to connect students with the next step in pursuing their career goals. CTEC Career Services has the tools and resources necessary to guide and help our students with applications, resumes, interviews, cover letters, etc.
Identifying Career Pathways
Our desire at CTEC is to focus on graduation, as well as the success of each student for years after they graduate from high school. From the day students arrive at CTEC, they start exploring their career future. They explore the Career Tree for their program and put a leaf on the tree as they envision their future. They work closely with the Career Services Center to identify support needed to achieve their career goals.
Additional Information
The business liaisons have been working hard to create a Workforce Resource Library for students, teachers, and parents to have an immense amount of educational resources available in one location (below is the link to the website).
Workforce Resource Library
We will be updating it accordingly, with additional resources. If you have any suggestions of websites that would be beneficial, you can submit them through the website (there is a form at the very bottom of the page). We hope that it helps you or others in the community. Feel free to share it!
