Career & Technical Education

Welcome!

Career & Technical Education (CTE)

Turn your interests into skills. Turn your skills into opportunities.

Career & Technical Education at Ypsilanti Community High School gives students the opportunity to learn by doing. Through hands-on instruction, industry-standard technology, real-world projects, professional certifications, Work-Based Learning, and career-connected experiences, students develop skills that extend beyond the classroom.

From media production and cosmetology to automotive technology, culinary arts, computer programming, aviation, entrepreneurship, manufacturing, and the performing arts, YCHS students can explore career pathways while building the technical knowledge, professional experience, and confidence needed for what comes next.

Explore our CTE programs and discover where your interests can take you.
