Discover Your Future Through Career & Technical Education
Leon County Schools’ Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs open doors to opportunity—helping students earn high school credit, college credit, and industry-recognized certifications that set them apart. These programs are challenging and future-focused, preparing students for college while building the real-world skills Florida employers need today.
Through our CTE pathways, students will:
-
Gain the skills and confidence to excel in the Florida workforce—and beyond
-
Learn high-demand, industry-relevant skills that open doors to employment, cross-training, or new career fields
-
Begin not just a job, but a meaningful career journey
Students in Leon County Schools have the opportunity to earn industry certifications that can also translate into college credit towards an A.S. Degree Program within the Florida state university system. These credentials allow students and families to save significantly on tuition and fees by completing career programs while still in high school.
