 | Career and Technical Education (CTE) includes a wide range of programs specifically designed to prepare students to enter the workforce immediately upon completion. With CTE, you can learn hands-on skills and earn a degree at the same time. Every AAS degree, certification, and diploma is part of CTE, and includes a number of diverse subjects and programs.

| Students in CTE programs are highly recruited by businesses and industries. SLCC has relationships with businesses and industries within the community and can help CTE graduates get into a career upon graduation. Job placement for graduates in some of the most common CTE programs are over 90 percent! In some cases, students may be hired before they graduate and are able to complete their education at company expense. | |
 | |
 | SLCC partners with more than 30 local high schools, and allows students to begin CTE training during high school through SLCC’s concurrent enrollment program. Concurrent enrollment allows students to earn high school and college credit at the same time, speeding their entry into the workforce. |
 | |
| SLCC’s CTE programs are designed to give you the hands-on training you need to go directly into the workforce upon completion of a 2-year AAS degree, diploma, or certificate. However, through SLCC’s articulation pathways program, many students completing a two-year Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree can go on to earn a Baccalaureate degree at participating four-year institutions, some of which teach programs on SLCC campuses through the University Center. Many CTE and University graduates return to SLCC for re-certification or continuing education through-out their careers. | |
