If you are choosing a CTE program, you need to know if you have the aptitude for the industry you are entering. Entering a medical tech career, you are going to be passing anatomy and physiology classes that require some heavy lifting in the academic arena and require some strong study skills. If you are entering the film industry, you are going to be working with people all the time and have to take heavy criticism and shake it off. If you are entering the IT industry you are going to have a lot of time on the computer solving complex issues and describing those issues back to people who don't have a clue about what you are talking about.
