Career and Technical Education

"......workforce development addresses the education needs of current and future workers. Community colleges have for decades been the largest providers of occupational skills training. For example, community colleges offer students programs in varying lengths that culminate in associate degrees, certificates, or certificates of completion for short-term training."
