Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs are committed to equipping young individuals with the skills needed to successfully balance the responsibilities of both family life and the workforce. By integrating academics with structured course sequences, CTE programs prepare students for high-skill, high-wage, or in-demand careers, as well as for continued education at post-secondary institutions.

The Region 3 Career and Technical Education Program supports school districts in the development, promotion, and implementation of high-quality CTE programs that comply with all state and federal regulations. The program also provides technical assistance and professional development opportunities to all participating districts.
