The Career Elevation and Technology Center (CETC) has been the preeminent Provider of Career and Technical Education (CTE) for the St. Vrain School District for over 50 years and is one of eight CTE centers in the state of Colorado. The building houses over 40,000 square feet of classroom, lab, and shop space and offers students the ability to take multiple courses in eight different program areas, some of which are in partnership with Aims Community College. Courses provide real-world, hands-on experiences in pathways that are high-wage and high-growth and are in high demand.
These pathways allow students to acquire knowledge, skills, and college credit linked with specific post-secondary programs leading to a two-year or four-year degree. Additionally, students are able to participate in rigorous work-based learning experiences and have the opportunity to earn multiple industry-recognized certifications, giving them a jump start in their careers and a solid foundation for success.
