Career & Technical Education

Land and Resource Management and Forestry

In this program, students interested in outdoor careers, nature and the environment are immersed in forestry ecology and conservation, species identification, land use, wildlife habitat, and timber management practices. Students learn orchard planting and pruning, forest and tree farm operations and management, and conservation plan development. There is the opportunity to personalize this program based on individual interests and post-secondary goals that involve the diversification of agriculture in our region.

Students are encouraged to utilize forested areas on campus, including our 300-acre Binney Woods, and will have the opportunity to earn the Game of Logging (Levels I - IV) credential, National Tractor Safety Certificate, and Wilderness First Aid certification. Qualified students will have access to Fast Forward college coursework available through the Community College of Vermont.

Dual Enrollment

Students enrolled in many of the CTE programs automatically earn college credit for their work. In partnership with the Community College of Vermont (CCV), students graduate from their CTE program with the credits from two or more courses, which can be transferred to any accredited college in the US.
