Central Westmoreland Career & Technology Center (CWCTC) is proud to offer 20 PDE-approved Career and Technical Education Programs to high school students from 10 sending school districts in and around Westmoreland County. CWCTC provides alternative pathways for careers, post-secondary education, apprenticeship programs, and the military.  Each of the 20 programs offers industry credentials and certifications, as well as statewide and local articulated credits at post-secondary schools across the state. Information about industry credentials/certification and articulated credits can be found by visiting the CWCTC School Counselor Office. Statewide articulated credit information can be found online at www.CollegeTransfer.net and by searching PA Bureau of CTE SOAR Programs.

programs of study at CWCTC. Each school respectively determines the grade and the criteria that must be reached to enroll at CWCTC.  

 To be eligible to attend CWCTC, a student must reside in a member school district with his/her parent/guardian. All non‐resident students are required to pay tuition, as established annually by the CWCTC Administration and the Joint Operating  Committee. The application process occurs during the spring of each school year for the upcoming school year. CTE course enrollment is available based on school district allocations. Once students are accepted into a CTE program, CWCTC and the sending school will work with students to complete a program.
