Career Technical Education (CTE) in WCCUSD by Industry
CTE: program of study that involves a multiyear sequence of courses that integrates core academic knowledge with technical and occupational knowledge to provide students with a pathway to post-secondary education and careers. This initiative is critical if California is to meet the challenges inherent in its diverse, rapidly changing education, economic, policy, and workforce environment.

- Fab Lab Experiences : The Richmond FabLab (Fabrication Laboratory) is a workshop equipped with computer-controlled machines that allow users to engage in rapid prototyping. It is open to students, teachers, staff, and the community and training is available for the machines and associated software.
In addition to the physical lab housed at Kennedy High School that is open to host study trips in addition to weekly open hours, we also have a Mobile FabLab unit that allows us to bring the fun and excitement directly to students. Schools can sign up to request visits from the Mobile FabLab throughout the year to support hands-on career skills experiences.
The College and Career Department annually acquires grant funding that supports a FabLab Manager and Instructional Coach who provide school and community outreach and support so that students throughout WCCSUD can experience tasks and possible careers in STEM.
