How Career TEC Works
Making the decision to attend Career TEC is not always easy. Here are a few points that you may want to consider as you look toward your future:
- Choosing a Career TEC course of study means you will spend ½ day at your home high school for your academic programs and ½ day in a career and technical program.
- You may continue to participate in sports and extra curricular activities at your home high school.
- With completion of a career and technical program your home high school diploma will be complemented with a Certificate of Occupational Competency from Career TEC.
- Course selections tied to a career pathway will strengthen your skills and better prepare you for making life-long decisions.
- Qualified students will have the opportunity to participate in work-based learning through cooperative education, internships and job mentoring programs.
- Tech Prep opportunities are available to you in qualified programs.
- Post secondary / college planning and placement assistance is available through the Career TEC placement counselor.
- You may enter your chosen occupation directly after high school or continue training at a community college, technical school, or other post-secondary institution and work part-time.
