Step into the world of career and technical education at Chardon High School in northeastern Ohio, where The CREW [Creating Reliable Educated Workers] program thrives. Our dedication to advancing education through practical experience is evident in our collaboration with Amatrol's Industry 4.0 Fundamentals program, employing eLearning modules and hands-on trainers.
In an enlightening video, Tracey Britt, a CTE Instructor at Chardon High School, sheds light on The CREW's inception and its pivotal role in equipping students with the knowledge and hands-on skills demanded by local manufacturers. Through personal accounts from students, witness the profound impact of our program in preparing them for the workforce.
Additionally, Britt highlights the program's emphasis on stackable certifications from the Smart Automation Certification Alliance (SACA). These certifications not only pave the way for lucrative employment opportunities but also offer students the chance to earn college credit. Celebrate the success stories, including four seniors who graduated with full-time jobs in manufacturing, a testament to our program's efficacy.
