🎓 Where can CTEC take you? Just ask Class of 2023 grad Nate Christianson! After graduating from CTEC and earning his associate degree in Industrial Technology at Fresno City College, Nate landed a full-time job in beautiful Santa Barbara, CA with Solid Rock Tile & Stone. 🌊 Today, he’s working as a CNC machinist — running the mill and saw to cut granite with precision, and using the same CAD design skills he first learned here at CTEC to lay out custom cuts. 🖥️🛠️ This is exactly what career-ready looks like. Real skills. Real jobs. Real opportunities.

Graduation: a time to shine. Adrian: mission accomplished 😂✨🎓
