Student Organizations
Career and Techncial Student Organizations (CTSOs) are an integral part of Career and Technical Education. CTSOs prepare students to become productive citizens and leaders in their communities by providing unique programs of career and leadership development, motivation and recognition. Students also enhance their learning, thinking, interpersonal, technology and communication skills. Through participation in technical competitive events, students build confidence as they demonstrate their skills and knowledge and solve real-world problems.
