Join Smart Talk for a virtual watch party to discuss Career & Technical Education in the midstate. The Watch Party streams LIVE on WITF’s YouTube channel and broadcasts LIVE on WITF 89.5 & 93.3 on Thursday, February 25 at 9am.

February is Career & Technical Education month. Smart Talk celebrates CTE trades, plus examines how teachers and students in the hands-on learning environment have been affected during the pandemic. CTE jobs are on the front lines. They are the essential workers — plumbers, EMT’s, food service, law enforcement, truck drivers and so much more. We’ll discuss the important role these professions play for our infrastructure and economy — during the pandemic and beyond.
