Members of the New York State Senate Education Committee toured the Capital Region BOCES Career & Technical Education Center – Albany Campus on Monday.

During the 90-minute visit, state senators and education committee staff members learned how BOCES is addressing the national skilled worker shortage and providing students with valuable life and career skills.

Since opening its doors back in August 2022, the Albany Campus houses 25 programs for high school students, several more for adult students, and is home to more than 1,100 of the approximately 1,400 Capital Region BOCES Career and Technical Education students enrolled for the current school year.
