Southeast Career Technical Academy is a four-year comprehensive career and technical high school accredited by the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges that offers Clark County students the opportunity to participate in career and technical training programs. The course of study consists of career and technical instruction as well as academic classes that meet college and district requirements, which leads students to a technical certificate and a high school diploma.

Established in 1966, the school offers multiple career and technical programs, a variety of academic courses, and student activities that can satisfy the needs of those young persons seeking additional choices to the regular high school curriculum. Academic and career and technical teachers serve Southeast Career Technical Academy’s 1829 students.

The success of SECTA was observed by the Clark County School District, who decided to plan and construct four more career technical academies in the various regions of the Las Vegas valley. In 2007, SECTA became the new name of Southern Nevada Vocational Technical Center in order to promote a positive image about the career and technical learning environment that is present at our school, and to become part of the five career technical academies in Las Vegas.
