We are glad to have hosted the Washtenaw ISD this week for their all staff retreat. A very important topic brought up this day was the importance of WISD CTE (Career Technical Education) programs. Its purpose is to give students hands-on experience prior to entering the workforce or a college program.
Did you know that while many CTE programs prepare students to enter a skilled trade directly after high school, 68% of CTE students in Washtenaw enroll in college within one year of graduation? These students often have a jump-start on their associate’s or bachelor’s degree as a result of transferable CTE credits.
If you have interest in learning more about the topic areas, career clusters and locations where the courses are available, visit the WISD website to learn more:
