Medina County Career Center celebrates CTE month!\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"Career-technical education (CTE) students gain pathway-specific technical<\/strong> and academic<\/strong> skills as well as cross-cutting employability<\/strong> skills for success in any workplace, in further education, and in career awareness and planning. Students who participate in career courses demonstrate greater knowledge of jobs, higher self-esteem, and better grades, and are more engaged<\/strong> in career and academic planning. 1<\/sup> In fact, CTE inspires and motivates<\/strong> students to develop many of the skills that employers most need across jobs and industries. Work-based learning helps students apply and extend classroom learning, gain motivation, explore careers and develop critical understanding of the work environment.2 <\/sup><\/p>\n

There are several recognized youth clubs and student organizations at the Medina County Career Center. Each CTE major <\/a><\/span>area sponsors a CTSO (Career Technical Student Organization) designed to develop the interests<\/strong> and leadership<\/strong> potential of the students in their chosen career pathways. Participation in career and technical student organizations (CTSO) raises students\u2019 academic motivation and engagement, grades, career self-efficacy, college aspirations and employability skills.3<\/sup><\/p>\n
