Disclaimer - This data is from our Career and Technical Education (CTE) program enrollment files submitted annually to the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) as required for our Perkins grant. MSDE defines job placement as the percentage of Career and Technology Education (CTE) concentrators who completed their CTE program who were employed, on active duty in the military, or placed in apprenticeship program at any point in the second quarter following the program year in which they left postsecondary education. MSDE uses the following data sources for employment verification: MDUI Wage Records, TRADE (DC, VA, WV, OH, PA, NJ), Office of Personnel Management, United States Postal Service, Department of Defense (Military Service), and Maryland Apprenticeship. This excludes the following categories from being captured in job placement rates: sole proprietors; independent contractors; and graduates who secure employment outside of Maryland or the locations noted above in TRADE.

AACC’s HCAT program facilitates the following certification exams for students: ServSafe Alcohol, ServSafe Food Protection, Customer Service Certification and Crowd Manager Certification. AACC may change which certifications are offered based upon feedback from its Advisory Board members as to what is relevant to the field.
