Career and Workforce Education
Career and Workforce Education (CWE) programs prepare students by providing them with the entry or advanced level knowledge and skills critical for successful employment. Career programs offer an alternative route to acquiring career skills and to furthering an educational experience. Rio Hondo College’s CWE programs are designed to provide educational, vocational and technical training that will lead to specialized employment, career advancement, or transfer to a university. Our career programs are taught by highly qualified faculty who are dedicated to the students they serve and provide them with the best education possible. In addition, they have been designed with the advice and counseling from advisory committee members who volunteer their time to keep our programs current with industry trends and technology advancements.
