Career and Technical Education (CTE) prepares individuals for high-skill, in-demand employment that furthers Illinois' global competitiveness. CTE programs provide learners with the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to thrive in college and careers.

This month is a time to raise awareness for the contributions and importance of these programs. For more information about CTE Month and how you can celebrate it, visit the following sites:
