Student Development
Student development is an ongoing focus at Career Technical College. Academic, occupational, and personal development are encouraged for all students. This emphasis is supported during the student's entire program of study by both academic and student services personnel.

Career Development
The primary purpose of career development is to help Career Technical College graduates obtain employment in their areas of specialization. Satisfactory completion of program course work by the student is the first step in the employment process. The Career Services Office provides specific training in various job-seeking skills through the Professional Development course.
