SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS

Approve Articulation Agreements with Hillsborough Community College for TECH PREP Secondary Programs (Career and Technical Education)

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

For the past 15 years, the School District and Hillsborough Community College (HCC) have worked collaboratively in implementing Tech Prep Programs of Study, districtwide and collegewide. One major component has been the establishment of articulation agreements allowing district secondary and postsecondary career and technical education students the opportunity to enter degree-seeking programs at the community college in an advanced status.

We are requesting approval of three new Articulation Agreements which have been developed for the secondary students as follows:

ANNUAL DISTRICT GOAL(S) AND CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTOR(S)

All District Goals and Critical Success Factors

FINANCIAL IMPACT (Budgeted: Yes)

All district Tech Prep programs are FTE-earning and are included in the divisional general operating budget.
