Career & Technical Student Organizations (CTSO)
CTSO stands for Career and Technical Student Organizations. These student organizations allow
students work together at the local, state, and/or national level, providing experiences in
leadership, teamwork, self-confidence, and character development through CTE programs.

classroom experiences. CTSOs are comprised of not-for-profit organizations specifically
