The Cuyahoga Valley Career Center is an extension of Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School and offers students a variety of career and technical education programs during their junior and senior years. These programs are designed to provide students with marketable technical skills and preparation for a career or further education making use of those skills. Upon graduation from high school, students are ready for immediate employment or for continued training in their chosen field in an apprenticeship, at a technical institute or at a two- or four-year college. Entry to CVCC programs is by application online at www.cvccworks.edu.
Career-Technical Credit Transfer (CT)2: Students are guaranteed the transfer of applicable credits among Ohio’s public colleges and universities and equitable treatment in the application of credits to admissions and degree requirements. (CT)2 helps more high school and career-technical students to go to college and enter with college credit; technical credit saves students money and time; and Ohio business and industry will benefit from more employees with higher education and advanced skills. This site provides information on career-technical course work that students can complete and transfer. It also provides information for campus staff to facilitate program approval for their career-technical programs.
Students who successfully complete specified technical programs are eligible to have technical credit transfer to Ohio public colleges and universities. This transfer of credit is described in Career-Technical Assurance Guides (CTAG). CTAGs are advising tools that assist students moving from Ohio secondary and career technical institutions to Ohio public institutions of higher education.
Ohio College Tech Prep program is a seamless, non-duplicative, integrated pathway of education and experience that begins in 11th grade and continues through college and beyond. The curriculum reflects real-world technical careers in high demand today and prepares students to be college and career ready. The Tri-C Tech Prep program connects high school and college education to high-skill and high-demand technical employment. Students are enrolled in the Tech Prep program through their high school district.
