Career and Technical Education

CTE provides students of all ages with the academic and technical skills, knowledge, and training necessary to succeed in future careers and to become lifelong learners. In total, about 12.5 million high school and college students are enrolled in CTE across the nation. CTE prepares these learners for the world of work by introducing them to workplace competencies, and makes academic content accessible to students by providing it in a hands-on context. In fact, the high school graduation rate for CTE concentrators is about 90% – 15 percentage points higher than the national average.

CTEC, the Career Technical Education Center, is a joint venture between private industry and public education with the intent of helping Salem-Keizer students develop academic proficiency, technical skills and certification, as well as the “soft skills” needed to assure preparedness and success in both careers and college. Students will have the opportunity to enroll in advanced, career-related, skills-based course work designed to help them explore a variety of career paths and explore post-secondary educational options.
