The goal of CCSD's Career, Technical, and Agricultural Education (CTAE) program is to prepare students for regional and local high-wage, high-skill, and in-demand industry sector occupations based on existing and emerging workforce development needs in Athens-Clarke County and the surrounding region. The CTAE program incorporates CCSD's mission of creating educational journeys that empower all students to fulfill their potential. It also provides students with advantages and experiences that will serve them well in life after high school – whether they are enrolling in college, enlisting in the military, or directly entering the world of employment.

Learn more about our career pathway opportunities for students at Cedar Shoals and Clarke Central high schools and the Athens Community Career Academy by watching the video below and checking out our 2025-26 CTAE Career Planner Guidebook – available in English and Spanish.
