High School Academies are a series of courses that lead into a degree program. Academies may result in a recognized industry credential, an embedded technical diploma, or up to a semester of an associate degree program. IT and Health Science are two examples of Academies offered to Chi-Hi students. Classes can be offered at a CVTC campus or at the high school location. Not all Academies listed on CVTC’s website are open to Chi-Hi Students. Please see your school counselor for more information. An application is required.
