Initiatives

The TCESC Business Advisory Council is implementing a series of initiatives aimed at enhancing workforce readiness throughout Trumbull County.

These efforts include expanding apprenticeship and pre-apprenticeship opportunities in partnership with local employers, creating early career awareness for students in grades 4–6 through experiences such as JA BizTown, and offering teacher externships that allow educators to gain firsthand industry experience and bring relevant workforce insights back to their classrooms.

The BAC will collaborate with school districts to host informational meetings for school leaders, focusing on best practices in workforce development programming and curriculum design.

In addition, the BAC looks to launch Family Career Nights to increase parental awareness and involvement in students’ career planning.

The TCESC also received the HOWMET Manufacturing Grant for the 2025–2026 school year, which will support twice-exceptional (2e) students by engaging them in career connections and CTE programming tailored to their strengths.
