Why Tech Prep For My Students?
Tech Prep academic pathways build on prior learning. Students won’t waste time and money taking courses in college they’ve already mastered in high school. Tech Prep provides a smooth transition from high school to college, and more importantly, students will be prepared for post-secondary education. Completing a Tech Prep program of study in its entirety with a grade of ‘B’ or higher will allow students to earn AACC college credits for their high school program. Approximately 70 percent of all AACPS graduates choosing Maryland colleges attend Anne Arundel Community College. There’s no reason that a student should not take advantage of this amazing opportunity.
Help your students focus on a career and not just a degree. Talk with your students and encourage them to enroll in a Tech Prep program of study. Students won’t be “locked” into any path. Instead, Tech Prep will give them a chance to explore different career options in various fields. Through cooperation and agreements with four-year universities, AACC students also have the opportunity to continue their education toward a bachelor's degree.
So the question should really be:
"Why not Tech Prep?"
