C-TEC of Licking County -

SkillsUSA recently attended the State Fall Leadership Conference. Team C-TEC was ready to go and had a nice time. Special congratulations to Riley Williams who was voted in as one of the nine Central Regional Officers! Riley is a Cosmetology junior from Lakewood.

Diesel & Power Equipment Mechanics senior Kaden Warner (home school Fairfield Union) recently passed his CDL Class A (no automatic restrictions) test and is now able to drive big rigs in Ohio. Kaden currently works at Central Ohio Oil and is already putting this new skill to work.
Kaden is working on earning his “Tanker endorsement” and plans to become a part owner in his brother’s trucking company after graduation.
Proud of you, sir! Well done, Kaden.

After landing the gig, Elf Baby Brooks headed off to the LPN lab to get a checkup and to make sure his vitals are good. We need to make sure he is up to the hard task off being C-TEC’s Elf on the Shelf.
Our LPN students tried to get good results, but it was a little difficult with this patient.
Join us every Saturday to see what apprentice Elf on the Shelf Baby Brooks gets into during his initial Christmas season at C-TEC!

Clinical Care seniors are using family members as phlebotomy patients. We recently held our first family volunteer event!
Students are required to complete 30 successful venipuncture draws (sticks) and 10 capillary draws prior to sitting for their Certified Phlebotomy Technician exam in mid-December.
We appreciate the family volunteers who helped them reach this goal.

C-TEC and Robertson Construction just hosted their first Construction Day program of the school year at Licking Valley Middle School. It's a great opportunity for students to have a hands-on experience related to all careers in construction.
And this is just the start - we will be visiting Utica, Heath, Johnstown, Lakewood, and Blessed Sacrament/St. Francis this school year - and to hoping to add a few more middle schools to this list!

The secondary Cosmetology program is offering a holiday special. Check this out!

This year, our perennial Elf on the Shelf Ginger Rife decided to turn over her holiday career exploration duties. She had many interviews for a replacement, but Elf Baby Brooks nailed his interview by not completely sliding off his chair onto the floor.
Join us every Saturday to see what apprentice Elf on the Shelf Baby Brooks gets into during his initial Christmas season at C-TEC!

So many great things happen to the high school students who walk through these doors!
