What does CTE diploma means to me

There are different diplomas that students in High School can get during their enrollment. However, they have different standards into achieving them, so Ill be showing the differences between them. A Regents diploma is the regular diploma that a student can get, and the Advance Regents diploma is for those that has taken more regents and exceed in grades compared to regular students. To get the Regents diploma, you need 8 English credits, 8 S.S. credits, 6 Math credits, 6 Science credits, 2 credits in LOTE, 4 credits in PE, 1 credit in Health, 2 credits in arts and 7 elective credits. You also need to pass at least 5 regents exam on English, any math, any science, any S.S., and any additional regents. The Advance Regents diploma is different in this. You need 6 LOTE credits instead of 2, but also need 3 elective credits instead of 7. You also need to pass at least 9 regent tests in order to get the Advanced Regents Diploma. The CTE endorsed diploma is one where the student enrolled in State-approved CTE programs. The requirement for the CTE endorsement is meeting the requirement of either the Regents or Advance Regents diploma. Taking the CTE course would cover all the elective credits and you only require 2 LOTE credits. You must also get course credits in the CTE class, 1 credit in Career and Financial Management, passing the CTE technical assessment and completing the WBL requirements. Doing so will add the endorsement to your diploma. The benefits of having the endorsement will let you have higher chances of getting a job at that occupation. This would benefit me personally, because i want to gain the skill of programming and I would be able to gain a job at doing what I love. Basically having this endorsement would make you stand out to the employer
