What is a Program of Study?

• Incorporates challenging state academic standards  

• Addresses academic, technical, and employability skills  

• Aligns with the needs of industries in the state, regional, and/or local economy  

• Progresses in specificity, beginning with all aspects of industry and leading to more occupation specific instruction
