Career Technical Education
Career Technical Education in Ohio prepares students for high-skill, high-demand technical careers in a competitive global economy.
Rigorous educational pathways emphasize math, science and technology and lead to postsecondary education. Educators, employers and communities collaborate to develop and deliver Career Technical Education Opportunities to all Ohio Students.
This vision is sustained by partnerships that align resources and expertise, and allow for students to earn college credit while in their high school career technical programs. Supported by federal and state funding and guidance, this initiative is jointly managed by the Ohio Board of Regents and the Ohio Department of Education's Office of Career-Technical Education. Seven Regional Centers engage employers, community and technical colleges, universities and secondary schools in local programs and student support services.
