Junior Carlie Butler likes her CTAE courses because they have provided her with the skills necessary to enter the workforce.
“We have learned about communication skills such as interview techniques, resume writing, website development, and google sites,” said Butler.
Sophomore Kenadie Howe shared her experiences from the program.
“What we are learning in these courses will carry you into you can go into any career after high school. For example, we are getting our certification in WORD and Excel right now. So those are programs you will use in just about any employment”, said Howe.
CTAE courses are offered in Mrs. Whittney LaHaynes’ class, and both Howe and Butler credit LaHayne for helping develop their business passion.
“She is nice and always tries to find things to make the class interesting. She listens to our ideas. For example, we work on the slideshows for the hallway TVs, and she encourages us to get creative with that”.
Howe and Butler both plan to continue their Business pathway at Banks County High School and aim to earn a business degree in college.
