NH CTE RV Delivers Hands-On Exposure to Tech Careers
With the demand for skilled Career and Technical Education (CTE) trades workers on the rise, companies are looking towards regional Tech centers to prepare students for fields such as automotive, construction, plumbing and HVAC, food services, machine tool, welding, and many other technical careers.
Fortunately, the Claremont School District had the pleasure of hosting the CTE Recreation Vehicle called the Mobile Access to Possibilities (MAPS) sponsored by the New Hampshire Bureau of Career and Technical Education.
Stevens High School and Unity Elementary students toured the RV which boasts activities that stimulate critical thinking and creativity. The purpose of the RV is to promote careers in the CTE (Career and Technical Education) field to students.
Dr. Alex Herzog, SRVRTC Director, was on-site to introduce students to the many CTE career options along with SAU6 Career Counselor Nika Oakes and Diane Lewis Education Consultant, front the Bureau of Career Development. Students were able to do hands-on activities such as hairstyling, circuit-making, and 3D computer exploration.
