Career Technical Education Program
In partnership with Mt San Jacinto College, the Career Technical Education Program is a robust effort aimed at reducing barriers for students to gain the necessary skills and training by offering rigorous and enriching educational opportunities. Our joint effort will prioritize expanding the following career and technical education curriculums: Medical Laboratory Technician and Medical Assistance; Cyber Security; Advanced Manufacturing; and Utilities. By offering scholarships and stipends to eligible students we are ensuring programmatic expenses are offset to provide equal opportunity in an inclusive environment for our residents. Additionally, employer connections and other workforce services are available as needed. Our commitment is to cultivate a resilient workforce that meets the emerging needs of employers, benefitting our residents and the entire region.
