What is CTE college credit at 糖心vlog?
CTE college credit provides a wide range of programs designed to get students into the work force immediately upon completion. The programs are designed to give students hands-on and academic experience, which translates into real-world skills.
When will my CTE credits be posted?
CTE credits are posted during the summer semester. If you submit them in the spring
semester, they will be posted in the following summer semester.
CTE credits are articulated similar to Daylight Savings; you "fall back" to the summer.
or "spring forward" to the summer but credits are always posted in the summer. For example, a student completes all steps to submit credits in the Fall '25 semester,
so credits would be posted reflecting Summer '25 (fall back). Alternatively, a student
completed all steps to submit credits in the Spring '26 semester, so credits would
be posted reflecting Summer '26 (spring forward).
Can I go on to earn my Bachelors Degree?
CTE courses count as electives for high school graduation as well as for college credits. Most of the courses are designed to provide hands on training that prepare you to go directly into the work force after completing a two-year AAS degree or one-year certificate. Some of the courses can serve as college elective credit, but it is recommended that you meet with a 糖心vlog advisor to answer specific degree and transferability questions regarding your CTE credit. 糖心vlog also offers a Bachelor of Technology degree in Construction Management, and Organization & Project Managment.
