Welcome to the The MN Century Program!
Advancing Career and Technical Education in Northern Minnesota
The MN Century Program is the result of The Rural Career and Technical Education Consortium Grant that was awarded to 38 northwestern Minnesota school districts in 2020. The funding was used to purchase 38 computer numerically controlled (CNC) routers, laptops for the CNC routers. In addition, funding continues to support instructor training and professional development for computer-aided drafting (CAD) and design software.
The students have enthusiastically begun learning valuable skills that will provide them with a head start in CNC and CAD mastery in the workforce. There are many creative projects that the students have completed, and new projects are being produced every day. Some have been shared with us! Check out the projects!
The 2025-26 school year has come to a close! There have been so many wonderful and unique projects that the students have completed. Thank you for sharing your work! You may also browse through some older projects that Kelliher students created - Click here.
Students from Roseau High School competed on a welding fabrication assignment at the 2026 National Skills USA. The team thinks they did well on both the welding fabrication and the written tests. It has been an exciting and successful trip! We are hoping to place in the top ten too. Minnesota has had a good showing with Stillwater College. GO MINNESOTA!
