Career and Technical Education (CTE)Definition #1:
Career and Technical Education (CTE) instruction aims at developing foundational skills, core workplace competencies, and specific skill competencies in various occupational areas.
Definition #2:
Career and Technical Education (CTE) prepares young people to manage the dual roles of family member and wage earner and enable students to gain entry-level employment in a high-skill, high-wage job and/or to continue their education

Texas Education Agency recommended sequence of courses
The Texas Education Agency has approved 12 high school courses in Human Services. Not all high schools offer all courses. What is meant by coherent sequence? The goal of CTE in high school is to progress through a sequence of courses that lead to the attainment of academic and technical skills. Discuss the sequence of Human Services on your campus/district. If applicable, discuss other Human Services courses/sequences offered at your campus and in your district. Inform students that it is possible to incorporate courses from other sequences or clusters into their personal program of study. Example: Sandra wants to someday own a hair salon. In addition to her cosmetology courses, she asks her counselor to enroll her in the course DOLLARS and SENSE (another Human Services course) so that she can learn about handling finances. In the future, Juan would like to work in a salon and eventually provide for a family of his own. In addition to his cosmetology courses, Juan asks his counselor to enroll him in CHILD DEVELOPMENT, so he can learn as much as he can about children. Encourage students to speak to their counselors.
