from the The Learning Centers website:
"As a program of The Learning Centers at Fairplex, a non-profit organization under the Los Angeles County Fair Association, CTEC has a mission to help fulfill unmet educational needs by educating and preparing students for real-world careers and professional success to help them make a positive contribution to the community. Through hands-on classroom instruction by credentialed instructors who are industry professionals, engagement with industry experts from the surrounding communities, and interaction with real work sites and professional environments, CTEC provides innovative learning experiences that give students the necessary skills to enter the workforce or continue on the pathway of higher education.
The CTEC mission is to:
CTEC offers career pathway courses with focused training in Arts, Media & Design, Automotive, Agriculture, Energy & Utilities, and Hospitality. Each career pathway consists of several courses that give students the opportunity to not only gain hands-on experience and exploration of career options, but also includes the development of employability skills to secure a job.
As we look at the future of available education options for high school students, CTEC is on track to becoming a premier provider of career technical education classes that support high school students and school districts in the local communities. By continuing to offer courses focused on career training, CTEC will provide hands-on, relevant learning opportunities for youth in the local region."
Since the summer of 2010 I have worked as the 2D art instructor at CTEC. As a division of The Learning Centers, CTEC offers instruction in hands-on learning and ROP courses currently suffering cuts and wholly underfunded at the public schools. Our mission is to inspire lifelong learning in supportive, experiential format courses with optional high school credit in a no-tuition, no fee environment. All materials are included; 2D classes offered Monday through Thursday, after school.
