Educator Professional Development

Educator Professional Development (EPD) programs provide professional development opportunities for educators using innovative approaches.

Educator Institutes

Skillpoint Alliance Educator Institutes provide professional development that brings teachers into environments where classroom concepts come alive. These industry-led trainings allow teachers to explore and collaborate, and participants leave with resources that will help them engage and excite their students.

Counselor Industry Visits

Counselor Industry Visits offer middle and high school counselors and directors of career and technology education an opportunity to meet with local business leaders about career opportunities for currently enrolled Central Texas students. Visiting corporate sites, participants talk with human resource personnel to learn which skills and knowledge are required for students to become qualified for particular occupations within a specific industry.

College & Career Expo

The College & Career Expo is an annual event designed to increase awareness of college and career alternatives for high school students.

Before I started Construction Gateway, I had low self-esteem, no self confidence and very little hope for a bright future. I’ve made some bad choices in my life but I learned a lesson with every mistake and it’s helped me change the way I think.

Construction Gateway has given me the chance to re-invent myself. The program and all the instructors have given me back my self-esteem, self-confidence and something that’s far more important than anything that can be taught in these classrooms... hope. I am no longer afraid to wake up and face the day’s challenges.
