Welcome

Whether you are a student, parent, educator or industry partner, I hope you will find a wealth of resources and valuable information here. Our department serves more than 450 career technical education (CTE) programs, many of which participate in  Linked Learning, a transformative approach to education. 

Our goal is to help all LAUSD students graduate with CTE pathway completion. All career pathways may offer and request support in the following areas:

• Work readiness curriculum training
• Internship Certificates and Work Ready Badges
• Work Based Learning, including field trips & student internships
• Industry Certifications
• New CTE teacher support and professional development
• CTE Teacher professional development
• CTE dual enrollment
• Linked Learning Silver and Gold Certification guidance
• Annual grant funding support for CTE programs
• Career Technical Student Organizations
• School leadership, ILT and counselor training

While you explore and learn about CTE and Linked Learning, I hope you become as excited as I am for the possibilities that await our students that offer career pathways!
