This February, the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) is celebrating Career and Technical Education (CTE) Month by highlighting the value of CTE programs and the students who are preparing for high-skill technical careers in more than 460 different fields across the state.
“The Texas workforce is bigger and better than ever before, in large part because of our historic investments in career training and education,” said Governor Greg Abbott. “During my time in office, we have provided millions in grants to prepare Texans for the jobs of tomorrow. We have opened new pathways to expand academic and technical programs across Texas for students to gain access to high-paying jobs. These opportunities ensure Texas remains the best state to live, work and raise a family.”
Governor Abbott issued a proclamation recognizing February 2026 as CTE Month in Texas. This recognition highlights the value of career and technical education in providing students with practical skills and pathways to rewarding careers.
