CTE at Sage Oak: IT & Entrepreneurship Pathways, Certifications, and Real-World ExperiencesHost Tiffiny Webster welcomes Sage Oak EAs Jared Tourse (IT/computer science) and Brandy and Brianna Hoch (entrepreneurship) to discuss Career Technical Education (CTE) pathways in the information technology and entrepreneurship program. They explain CTE as a multi-year sequence that builds real-world skills beyond a one-off elective, leading to certifications and career readiness; students can start in 9th grade, stack skills, take multiple pathways, or switch if interests change. Entrepreneurship includes resume building plus workplace readiness and small business certifications, then Entrepreneurship 2 focuses on pitch decks, “Shark Tank” projects, and ethics scenarios. IT students build programs, apps, and websites while learning problem-solving and AI topics. The episode highlights guest speakers, a young entrepreneurs club, field trips, internships, and using sageoak.education, weekly updates, clubs, counselors, and EAs to get involved.00:00 Welcome and Guests00:48 Meet the EAs02:13 What CTE Means04:05 Entrepreneurship Track05:10 Entrepreneurship Two Projects07:13 How to Join Pathways09:06 Student Fit and Reality Check11:32 Real World Connections14:00 IT Pathway Projects15:12 Staying Informed and Wrap UpFor more information visit www.sagoak.educationThank you for listening to the Sage Studio podcast presented by Sage Oak Charter Schools and hosted by Tiffiny Webster, M.A.Ed.
