Apprenticeships

​

An apprenticeship combines on-the-job training with job-related instruction from experienced workers who teach you the skills of their craft. Apprentices learn job skills, gain experience, and ultimately earn a credential.

Military

​

• Military Pathways An overview of the different pathways related to joining the military.

• Join the Military

      Joining the military can be an exciting and life-changing experience. There are a lot of reasons young men and          women across the United States show an interest in the Armed Forces. Some have a multigenerational respect          for the military and want to serve like their older relatives did. Others want job security and the benefits that              come along with being in the military. Whatever the reason, joining the military can create a great foundation for         future personal growth.

• The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is a multiple-aptitude battery that measures developed abilities and helps predict future academic and occupational success in the military. It is administered twice a year at Cedarcrest, fall and late winter.

*Military Visits occur during lunch throughout the school year. See the CCC calendar above for upcoming dates.
