TIME: 12:00 p.m. - 1:00 p.m.
This CTE Month event is a live encore presentation of a popular CTE Works! Summit session.
Two-year college/career pathways are not just for “those types of
students!” Students on “both ends of the building” enjoy meaningful and
fulfilling careers in the trades! This presentation will feature
no-nonsense discussion about stigmas surrounding 2-year college and
career pathways. This open and honest conversation includes talk about
the job market outlook, earning potential, scholarships, and real-life
success stories. Participants are encouraged to ask questions and give
feedback. Attendees will also receive digital access to career
exploration opportunities, college pathways, and scholarship resource
libraries.
