What is CTE All About?
The West Ada Career and Technical Education (CTE) Program provides students with an opportunity to jump start their post-secondary education or acquire skills to enter the workforce right out of high school. West Ada CTE programs contain numerous pathways, all guided by curriculum that aligns with current industry standards, creating a competitive advantage for students. CTE classes include a combination of traditional classroom instruction and hands-on learning using state-of-the art equipment and machinery.
Many of these career pathways lead to industry certifications, post-secondary credits and/or an industry externship. In addition, each pathway is guided by a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). This committee consists of members who are local employers and post-secondary college representatives, providing support for students and ensuring students receive a robust curriculum aligned to current industry practices.
