Career and Technical Skills can Open Doors to Opportunities
The Crawford County Career & Technical Center is the major center of occupational and technical skill training for secondary students and adults in the county.

Upon graduation, students can enter the workforce, begin an apprentice program, go to trade/technical schools or go to college. Learning a skill is an investment in ones’ future.
