Work-Based Learning 

CTE students in every program have the opportunity to participate in internships that enhance their education. Internships help students put classroom theory to use in real-life situations. They also give students work experience and the chance to meet and network with people in their chosen field. Internships are customized for every student. The CTE Instructors and Work-Based Learning Coordinators cultivate relationships with mentors and employers who are experienced and knowledgeable in their fields. They then match each CTE student with a mentor who will supplement what is being taught in the classroom and devise a set of goals to be accomplished during the timeframe.
