WELCOME

Tech Prep is dedicated to paving the way for students to achieve academic success before they graduate high school. The program is a partnership between high schools, businesses, and community college programs to develop occupational pathways, work-base learning experiences and career development for educators. In a sequential program of study, students are able to earn dual credit for approved classes, take introductory level courses on high school campuses and get a head start towards completing a college degree or certificate at Los Angeles Mission College. Feel free to explore this website and please contact our office for any additional information and for answers to any questions you may have.

Tech Prep programs focus on the integration and articulation of curricular pathways among secondary and post secondary programs. The Tech Prep program provides academic and vocational preparation in an identified career pathway. Tech Prep students begin their program of study in a secondary institution and then transition into a post secondary institution to earn an advanced technical degree or certification. Career pathways are academically rigorous and provide the technical skills that will enable students to enter California's new, highly technical economy.

This program is made possible through funding from the Carl D. Perkins Vocational-Technical Education Act (VTEA) of 1998.
