Career and Technical Education

 

Career and Technical Education (CTE) is an essential component of the high school curriculum. For many students, it represents as much as a third of their high school experience. It is a critical component in meeting the needs of students in academic achievement, career exploration, career preparation and leadership development. Successful transition to postsecondary education, work or the military is one of the goals of Kentucky's educational system. The percentage of students making successful transition is a component of the high school accountability index.

 

For a complete listing of the career pathways offered at Harlan County High School along with contact information for each instructor, please visit our District CTE page located at http://harlan.k12.ky.us/CTE.html.

 

End of Program Assessments (Formerly KOSSA)

Career and Technical Education End-of-Program (CTE EOP) Assessment for Articulated Credit is one measure of career readiness as a transition readiness indicator of the Kentucky accountability system. CTE EOP Assessments are state developed assessments based upon clear and concise standards identified by Kentucky employers, aligned with CTE career pathways and associated with statewide articulation agreements with postsecondary partners.
