Another CTE Alumni sharing their experience in career and technical education! My name is Brock Golden, and I am a proud graduate of the HVAC/R program at the Saginaw Career Complex (SCC). During my senior year of high school, I enrolled in the program with no prior experience in the field—honestly, I barely knew where to start. But thanks to the incredible resources and hands-on training at SCC, I quickly became confident in my skills. Throughout the year, I gained valuable knowledge and experience, earning my OSHA 10 certification and competing in the SkillsUSA competition at the local, regional, and state levels. After graduation, I put my training to work in the field, specializing in commercial HVAC service. Today, I am continuing my education at Ferris State University, pursuing a bachelor’s degree in HVAC/R. In just a few months, I’ll be starting my career with Trane, a direct result of the education, skills, and industry connections I gained through my CTE program. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunities SCC provided me, and I wholeheartedly support and advocate for CTE programs—they truly set students up for success.
