Career pathways: Capital Region BOCES Career and Technical School student Chris Brumley, a junior from Voorheesville, is constructing a vice using a milling machine and other tools in the shop of the Alternative Energy and Advanced Construction Technology classroom. He is planning on a career in engineering and is using career pathways skills he is learning at CTE to achieve that goal. "I am creative and I like building stuff," said Brumley.
