The Traverse Bay Area Career-Tech Center is a regional center serving Antrim, Benzie, Grand Traverse, Kalkaska, and Leelanau county high schools with career and technical learning opportunities for students in eleventh and twelfth grade. Students who reside in the region are able to attend the center at no cost to the individual or the school district they attend.

Students attend half the school day at their local high school and the other half at the Career-Tech Center, allowing them to complete Michigan high school graduation requirements as well as explore a career interest that can give them a head start and prepare them for success in college, the workforce,  or military service.
