TECH PREP  Tech Prep Articulation Tech Prep articulation is the process of developing a formal, written and published agreement that identifies courses (or sequence of courses), from one of the high school districts or ROP named above, that are comparable to, or acceptable in lieu of, specific course requirements at Chaffey College. Successful completion of an articulated high school/ROP Tech Prep course assures the student and the faculty that the student has taken the appropriate course, received the necessary instruction and preparation, and that similar outcomes can be assured, enabling progress to the next level of instruction at Chaffey College. STUDENTS Students can earn college credit for specific Tech Prep courses taken in high school that will transfer to certificate and degree programs at Chaffey College. Students do not pay for high school Tech Prep courses so they save on college tuition and textbook costs. Students also save time by not having to repeat those courses when they enroll in college certificate or degree programs. SCHOOLS Colleges benefit by attracting more and better prepared students into their certificate and degree programs. Colleges also benefit by developing collaborative relationships with secondary faculty in discipline-specific areas. These partnerships allow faculty at each educational level to become more aware of the challenges facing faculty at each level and to develop curriculum that is both rigorous and relevant. COMMUNITY Communities benefit by gaining a better skilled workforce through focused educational effort between secondary and post secondary institutions. Communities also benefit by having the members of their community gainfully employed. |
