The Technical College Leadership Council (TCLC) is a postsecondary advisory group to the Division. Comprised of CTE Deans from all six technical colleges, TCLC serves to ensure technical education programs align with regional and state industry needs.
Idaho’s six career technical education (CTE) institutions provide students with rigorous academic content and relevant technical knowledge and skills to prepare for careers in high-skill, high-wage, in-demand jobs.
