    My personal philosophy on Career and Technical Education (CTE), comes from my life’s professional experience of working in Emergency Medicine and working with CTE programs. I believe that CTE prepares secondary and postsecondary students of all diverse backgrounds to obtain gainful employment and creates an ultimate experience of knowledge and development.
