Course CTSO

The United States Department of Education recognizes 10 national career and technical student organizations (CTSOs) as integral to career and technical education. CTSOs provide a uncommon experience for middle/junior high, high school and college students, including: leadership development, employability skills training and the importance of being a responsible American citizen.

Each year millions of working adults join one or more professional associations in specific and general career fields. CTSOs are NOT "clubs." An integrated SkillsUSA section includes a wide range of activities that model adult professional organizations, including: gaining community support, networking, supporting your local community, and work experience. In other words, a CTSO works best when it is utilized as part of the program of instruction and is administered by a teacher (Advisor) who is committed to development of the entire student (i.e. technical skills, leadership skills, employability skills, etc.)
