Career Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs)
Thousands of Georgia students participate in career and technical student organizations (CTSOs). These organizations connect students sharing career interests with teachers, community leaders, and local business people who serve as mentors, role models, and, often, employment opportunities. CTSOs enrich the curriculum in the CTAE Pathways. Many of these organizations are state chapters of national organizations that, with the aid of multiple corporate sponsors, have succeeded in developing effective programs to instruct and challenge students.
