Articulation Agreements/Tech Prep


Tech Prep

Tech Prep is based on one simple idea: students, parents, educators and employers working together to help students acquire advanced placement credit to prepare them for good, high-paying, technical jobs.

Tech prep is a seamless curriculum of courses, combining at least the two years of secondary school with two years of post secondary education which leads to an associate degree, two-year certificate, or trade apprenticeship.

How to become a Tech Prep Student:

Contact the Guidance Counselor at NMTCC and also meet with your High School Guidance Counselor. Together they will plan your sequence of academic and technical courses that will help you pursue post secondary options leading to a technical career.
