Career and Technology Studies (CTS) provides students in Grades 10 to 12 with “hands on learning” and activity centered learning. Introductory courses are meant to be exploratory and offer wide varieties of experiences. The Career & Technology Studies (CTS) program helps you acquire the knowledge, skills and attitude for a career that is relevant to your interests. The entire CTS program centers around five industry clusters and 28 occupational areas organized into one-credit courses.
The CTS Lab at Archbishop MacDonald features brand new computers, laptops, and a dedicated Threadripper rendering station computer that has 24 cores. It has 3D printers, photography, and videography equipment, a green room, a large-scale plotter, and charging stations for students who prefer to bring their own equipment. This room is designed to be unlike the typical computer lab and to encourage problem solving through creation.
