Wherever there are machines, there will be a need for maintenance workers to keep them running. Now more than ever, companies have a critical need for skilled and knowledgeable technicians that can run, maintain, and troubleshoot equipment in various facilities.

Drafting students have been busy! Lots of projects going on from signs to 3D printing to creating a map of outlets for our maintenance guy, Denny!

Back to work! #wvdecte #cterocks

All AM welding students are now OSHA certified! Congratulations!

Students from the Law & Public Safety Program tested their use of force continuum knowledge and baton skills against the Red Man Suit. A special thanks to 2nd year student Colt Lutz for suiting up.




Students from Mrs. Redin's Grow Your Own (GYO) Future Educators teacher preparation program visited St. Marys Elementary School to do classroom observations. This will help prepare GYO students for their field placement during the spring semester.

Even as we are nearing the end of our first semester, students are still working hard! #thisisCTE #CTErocks

It's welding certification season at MOVTI!
Tatem Elliott (senior, Ritchie), Hunter Huggins (senior, Tyler Consolidated), Dalton America (senior, Tyler Consolidated) passed their SMAW welding test! #preparingforthefuture #workforceready #collegeready #wvdecte #movtiworks

Senior Welding students, Austin VanCamp (Left, TC) and Peyton Lowther (Right, TC) are pictured with welding instructor, Mike Sims. Both students successfully passed their SWAW certification.

Several AM Welding students completed their OSHA 10 certification! Many unions and businesses require their employee to earn their OHSA 10. So, by completing this course and earning this certification during high school, students who plan to directly enter the workforce are already one step ahead!
