As the demand for skilled professionals in fields like healthcare, technology, engineering, and the trades continues to rise, Career and Technical Education (CTE) is critical in preparing students for success in these industries. EnCorps’ Career and Technical Education Training (CTE) program offers educators already teaching in CTE fields the professional development, support, and training they need to enhance their skills and improve student outcomes.

 

The Importance of Career and Technical Education (CTE) in the U.S.

CTE programs are integral to public education across the U.S., available in every state and most school districts. At the national level, CTE is organized into 16 career pathways that states use as a foundation for their CTE programs. Each state adapts these pathways to fit the specific needs of its workforce by adding, modifying, or refining certain pathways.

 

 

 

 


In California, CTE is made up of 15 industry sectors:

  • Agriculture and Natural Resources
  • Arts, Media, and Entertainment
  • Building and Construction Trades
  • Business and Finance
  • Education, Child Development, and Family Services
  • Energy, Environment, and Utilities
  • Engineering and Architecture
  • Fashion and Interior Design
  • Health Science and Medical Technology
  • Hospitality, Tourism, and Recreation
  • Information and Communication Technologies
  • Manufacturing and Product Design
  • Marketing, Sales, and Services
  • Public Services
  • Transportation

These sectors provide students with specialized education that prepares them for the demands of California’s growing industries. EnCorps’ CTE Teacher Program offers training and development for teachers already working in these fields to further refine their teaching skills.
