What is a CTSO? Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSO) integrate into Career and Technical Education programs and courses to extend teaching and learning through innovative programs, business and community partnerships and leadership experiences at the school, state and national levels. CTSOs are a powerful avenue for helping our nation address key challenges such as workforce development, student achievement, economic vitality and global competitiveness.

The Guide to Career and Technical Student Organizations (PDF) can help educators decide which organizations would benefit the students in their schools.

To learn more about each of the organizations see the information provided below or click HERE for more information.

If you are interested in starting a new chapter, please visit the websites of these organizations or reach out to a fellow colleague who already has an established chapter at their school.
