The month of February is designated as Career/Tech Ed Month. Career and technical education has a wide range of careers including: entrepreneurship, automotive technician, architect, carpenter, nursing, dental, medical technicians, careers related to food and fiber production and agribusiness, culinary arts, management and life skills, marketing, technology, and engineering. - According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, nearly one-third of the fastest growing occupations will require an associate's degree or a postsecondary vocational certificate. Research also indicates that 80 percent of current and emerging occupations require two-year technical degrees, while just 20 percent require baccalaureate degrees.
Please take time and look at what the Troy Pike Center for Technology has to offer as you look ahead to scheduling classes for next semester. There is a world of opportunity out there for young adults to take advantage of in Career and Technical Education.
