Building Pathways with Youth

CTE Dual Credit Programs

Programs designed to guide local students into high-skill, family-wage careers with local industries.

High school students earn dual credits by enrolling in career and technical education classes (CTE) at their local high school. Once students graduate from high school and arrive at LCC, those classes are transferred as professional technical credits, meaning high school students can earn college credit for high school classes, without leaving high school or doing additional homework!
