  • integrates academic, technical, and occupational knowledge to provide students with pathways to high-demand, livable-wage careers.
  • prepares learners for the world of work by introducing them to workplace competencies and makes academic content accessible to students by providing it in a hands-on context, a key element to learners finding and preparing for a career they are passionate about.
