Work Experience Opportunities
CCTE students in many cases can pursue what is called a "work-based learning" opportunity or an internship involving a job outside of school. "Work-based learning" experiences are always paid and earn high school credit. Internships are typically paid but do not earn academic credit. Counselors and CCTE teachers work with local employers to arrange these opportunities for their students. If you are interested in learning more, reach out to your counselor for more information.
