CTE Pathways
About
CTE courses are sequenced according to knowledge and skills. Students are encouraged to complete the courses in sequence, to progress from introductory to capstone curriculum. Each course is 155 hours long. A student with 300 hours of in-sequence coursework is a pathway completer.
A Pathway can have an introductory course, should have a concentrator and must have a capstone.
