Hear from other CTE students.
Career & Technical Education (CTE) is an academic program available to all 10-12 grade MPS students interested in earning college credit or receiving job certifications for free.
Courses are taught online and at our CTE Tech Centers located at Edison, North and Roosevelt high schools. Students remain enrolled in their current high school.
CTE courses emphasize the development of real-world skills and practical knowledge. When students enroll in CTE courses they build resume-worthy experiences and are connected to a variety of career exploration activities including guest speakers, worksite and company tours, and internships.
