  • The State Center Consortium is pleased to announce the award of funds from the Colton-Redlands -Yucaipa Regional Occupational Program (CRYROP) Governor’s Grant for the Fall Semester 2010.

    These funds are designated to support Career Technical Education (CTE) teacher training for new teachers coming out of industry and business. We are very excited about the possibilities this represents for Consortium ‘partners in education’.
