Industrial Technology 

Picture
OUR MISSION:

The mission of Industrial Trades and Technology Education is to prepare students for successful careers by building a solid foundation of the required knowledge and skills that lead to careers in industrial, trades and technology.

SCOPE
Industrial Trades and Technology Education is a study of technology and industry, which provides an opportunity for students to learn about the processes and knowledge related to Industrial Trades and Technology that are needed to solve problems and extend human capabilities.  The strength of Industrial Trades and Technology Education is that of a hands-on approach that adds an emphasis of the technological nature of life and industry.  Nationally, the majority of industrial trade area employers report a huge shortage of skilled workers, with the prospects of filling thousands of current or new, well-paying jobs becoming a major crisis as new technologies emerge and current employees reach retirement age.

OBJECTIVES
  • Creating relevant career exploration and preparation opportunities;
  • Applying academic standards in an integrated framework throughout all curricular areas;
  • Facilitating career and educational transitions post high school;
  • Empowering students to be life long learners in a global society.
