About

Chelsea Career and Technical Education High School offers dynamic career pathways in Graphic Design, Computer Systems & Networking (CISCO), Cybersecurity, and Computer Systems & Telecommunications. We also offer several Advanced Placement (AP) courses, College Now classes, and afford all students with the opportunity to graduate with an Advanced Regents Diploma alongside their career pathway certifications and credentials. We are part of Future Ready NYC and the Career Readiness Modern Youth Apprenticeship program, which affords our students with expanded opportunities for career exploration and readiness. Upon completion of our rigorous academic program, work-based learning experiences, and apprenticeships, our students have four distinct options upon graduation college, career, civil service, or the armed services. By attending Chelsea CTE, our graduates are prepared for the societal demands of the 21st century. We are part of the Career Readiness and Modern Youth Apprenticeship (CRMYA) pilot, which helps us support career readiness for all our students. We have courses that help our ninth and tenth graders explore their career interests and develop readiness skills. Our students can apply for apprenticeships in tech, finance, and business, which allows them to earn and learn while in high school.
