About the Podcast

Shop Talk with Mr. A was created to offer valuable and relevant information about Career and Technical Education (CTE) for both students and parents. As CTE programs continue to grow and play a bigger role in the education system across the country, we want to help bridge the gap between what students are learning in school and the skills they need for the workforce.

Our goal with Shop Talk is to provide a resource that helps students and families understand the many opportunities available in CTE fields, whether it's preparing for a career in the trades, technology, healthcare, or other hands-on professions. Through these conversations, we're doing our part to support the development of skills that are in high demand today, helping students set themselves up for success in the future.
