The CTE (Career & Technical Education) College Credit Program awards free college credit for high school classes. Eligible high school classes are a part of a CTE high school program which is generally three years of high school classes (Level 1-3). By participating in CTE courses at Western HS, students have the opportunity to explore career interests, in high school, while building an official college transcript.
High school students who receive the Nevada Department of Education Certificate of Skill Attainment qualify for free college classes. To be eligible you must:
Complete an approved CTE high school program sequence with a minimum of 3.0/B grade point average or higher;
Pass the State End-of-Program Assessment; and
Pass the State Workplace Readiness Assessment.
