About The Position

Programs begin in 10th grade and continue through 12th grade, with students completing 1,080 hours of hands-on training. There are opportunities to connect with local employers, colleges, and industry partners, and participation in Career & Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs), such as FBLA, HOSA, SkillsUSA, or DECA, for leadership and competition opportunities.
