Marshall Mayor Craig Thompson made a proclamation deeming February 1-28, 2026 as Career and Technical Education month.

Students enrolled in Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses gain pathway-specific technical and academic skills, while acquiring employability skills, which allow for success in the workplace or future education.

Saline County Career Center offers students course work, focused in 9 secondary CTE program areas, as well as one post-secondary area. The Secondary program areas include Agriculture Education, Automotive Technology, Building Trades, Business Education, Culinary Arts, Information Technology, Health Sciences, Marketing, and Teaching Professions. Practical Nursing is the only Post-Secondary area.

In addition, students at SCCC attend from 4 area schools including Marshall, Malta Bend, Slater and Sweet Springs.

SCCC students are also involved in Career & Technical Student Organizations (CTSO’s) which support the learning at SCCC. CTSO’s give students the opportunity to extend their learning and compete virtually or in person while also meeting peers and networking. The CTSO’s offered at SCCC include DECA, EdRising, FBLA, FFA, HOSA, and SkillsUSA.
