Mercy Career & Technical High School offers students superior technical training in seven career and technical education (CTE) programs.
The three-year career and technical education curriculum develops educational and career goals and provides on-the-job learning experience. CTE offers students whose talents and career goals are best served by a comprehensive academic/career and technical education program the opportunity to acquire marketable competencies and/or the foundation for post-secondary career education. Each CTE program offers students the opportunity to earn professional certification/licensing.
The CTE programs each have an Occupational Advisory Council (OAC) whose members are from business/industry and have a current working knowledge of the career field. The OACs ensure the curriculum is current and relevant, provide Co-Op opportunities and are often guest speakers in the various CTE programs.

Most 12th grade students participate in Mercy Tech's Cooperative Education Program.
