CHC Collaborates with CRY/ROP on Career Technical Education Options Fair

Publish Date: March 3, 2023

High school students in the Yucaipa-Redlands area are receiving valuable information and career guidance thanks to the Outreach and Educational Partnerships team at Crafton Hills College (CHC) in collaboration with Colton-Redlands- Yucaipa (CRY)/Regional Occupational Program (ROP). Resources include information about different career paths, college application support, dual enrollment at CHC, and campus resources.

The first event of this outreach program occurred on Friday, February 10, when Redlands East Valley High School hosted a Career Technical Education (CTE) Options Fair in its gym. Students from Redlands High School, Redlands East Valley High School, Orangewood High School, and Citrus Valley High School attended. Students could visit various tables and network with organizations and employers.

About 30 organizations provided students with information and resources about careers in their respective fields. Participating organizations included local employers, short-term training programs, community college programs, military recruiters, unions, and organizations that offer internships, education opportunities, and future job information. The variety of participating organizations was impressive, including representatives from Amazon, CHC, CRY/ROP, and San Bernardino County Probation.

At the CHC table, students could spin the prize wheel and win Crafton Hills College gear, including lanyards, pens, pencils, lip balm, and other goodies. They also signed up to receive more information about the College and enrollment steps.

The Outreach and Educational Partnerships team is excited to continue the partnership with our local community organizations, employers, and school districts. Together we can continue to provide resources to diverse student populations.
