A message from the President/CEO

Welcome to Great Oaks Career Campuses!

Since 1970, Great Oaks has been one of the nation’s largest career and technical education districts, serving 36 school districts across southwest Ohio. Each year, tens of thousands of high school students and adults benefit from our programs—ranging from K–12 career development to technical training in high-demand fields like healthcare, information technology, aviation, and construction. We also partner with employers to provide customized training that strengthens the region’s workforce and economy.

We are proud of our students, who contribute their skills in businesses, hospitals, schools, and communities, and of our staff, whose expertise and leadership have built Great Oaks’ strong reputation nationwide. I invite you to explore our website, visit our campuses, and see how Great Oaks can help you take the next step toward your future.

Sincerely,
Harry Snyder
