What if education prepared students for life, not just tests? In this episode of Denny Talks, I’m sharing why career and technical education (CTE) is the future—and how it’s transforming the lives of students across all walks of life.

I’ll take you behind the scenes of my interactive media classroom and my husband’s construction tech program, where students are designing logos, editing videos, framing buildings, and heading to nationals for media and carpentry competitions.

We’ll talk about the power of nontraditional career paths, the opportunities inside CTSO organizations, and why live work with clients, internships, and hands-on learning make all the difference.

Whether you’re a teacher, parent, or student—this episode will open your eyes to the kind of education that builds confidence, character, and real-world skills.

🎓 Topics include:

  • What career tech really looks like
  • How students thrive through hands-on learning
  • Why CTSOs build more than resumes—they build leaders
  • Real examples of projects that prep kids for real careers
