Career & Technical Education (CTE)

CISD Career & Technical Education (CTE) program allows students to develop both college preparation and real-world workforce skills development through this customized education program.  CTE content is aligned with challenging academic standards and relevant technical knowledge and skills needed to prepare for further education and careers in current or emerging professions.
