CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION (CTE) COLLEGE CREDIT
CTE College Credit provides an opportunity for secondary students who complete state-approved programs in CTE to earn postsecondary credit at no cost to the student. CTE College Credit is articulated credit, the high school course work aligns to postsecondary courses, and the teacher of record is a high school CTE teacher.
To qualify for the CTE College Credit, students must:
Earn a 3.0 GPA in the CTE course sequence.
Pass the state end-of-program technical content assessment.
Pass the state Workplace Readiness assessment for employability skills.
Students who complete a CTE program of study according to the criteria are eligible to earn the CTE College Credit within three years of graduating from high school and upon admission to the postsecondary institution. The amount of credit is dependent upon the state standards for each high school CTE program and how the standards align to the college courses for a certificate or degree in a related career pathway.
