The following information explains the opportunities for students to earn college credit in career-technical education.  Students have three options for earning college credit at Miami Valley Career Technology Center (MVCTC).

 

College Credit Plus

Students qualified under Ohio’s College Credit Plus (CCP) program may choose to enroll in CCP courses.  If a student qualifies, the course can be used by partner districts to meet the 15 and 30 credit hour pathway requirements set forth by CCP.  To be eligible to participate, a student must meet the participating college’s established placement standards for college-level courses.  Students who are eligible for enrollment in CCP classes offered at the MVCTC may have the opportunity to earn dual credit from Clark State Community College (CSCC) and/or Sinclair Community College (SCC), in the following academic and elective courses*:

Work-Based Learning

Apprenticeship/Internship opportunities link secondary education, post-secondary education, business, industry, and government together to provide a seamless career path for high school students. Well-planned and supervised school-based and work-based learning experiences are the foundation for the program. The Apprenticeship program allows students to work and earn a paycheck - while learning skills and earning the certifications that employers want. Registered Apprenticeship provides more than 500,000 apprentices across the U.S. with industry-specific education, on-the-job training, nationally recognized certifications, and guaranteed wage increases. Apprenticeships have a defined timeline of training over 2-4 years, while internships do not have the timeline and do not need to be registered.
