Career and Technical Education

The mission of Career and Technical Education is to empower all students to be successful citizens, workers and leaders in a global economy. 

The goal of CTE in Asheville City Schools is to prepare students for future careers, to pursue higher education and to learn necessary life skills. The CTE curriculum also assists students in making informed educational and career decisions, in applying and reinforcing learning from other disciplines, and in developing decision-making, communication, problem-solving, leadership, and citizenship skills.
