CTE Community Collaborative
The CTE Community Collaborative is designed to introduce middle school and high school students in the Berkeley City College service area to a broad spectrum of career choices and provide hands-on activities and targeted training in several of the industry sectors listed as strategic priorities by the California Community Colleges Employment and Workforce Development Program: Multimedia/Entertainment.
Under the grant which ended in Fall 2014, activities have included significant curriculum development and articulation activities with Berkeley and Oakland Unified School District, the creation of stackable certificates, provision of internship opportunities for students developing internal informational videos for fellow BCC students, professional development for faculty, and direct counseling and outreach services to K-12 students.
Please find an example of the CTE Community Collaberative funded video which provided both work-based learning for BCC multimedia arts students, as well as important informational resources for potential and existing BCC students here:
Berkeley City College was honored to receive this funding from the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office.
