College & Career Readiness Models

The Texas College and Career Readiness Models (CCRM) Network is a network of Texas Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (T-STEM) Academies, Early College High Schools (ECHS), Industry Cluster Innovative Academies (ICIA), and Pathways in Technology Early College High Schools (P-TECH).


This initiatives, led by the Texas Education Agency (TEA), blend high school and college coursework to help historically under-served and at-risk students develop technical skills, earn dual college credit, and pursue in-demand career paths.
