OVERVIEW
Tech Prep in Idaho’s Region II facilitates the transition of students and the strengthening of curricular ties between high schools and Idaho’s Professional-Technical colleges such as LCSC. Tech Prep programs award college credit for designated high school coursework and emphasize the need for each high school graduate to have a career plan. Tech Prep programs consist of a 2+2 sequence of coursework; the last 2 years of high school and the first 2 years of college, normally resulting in an AAS degree, but may extend on to a Bachelors degree. High school and LCSC instructors play a primary role in building the curriculum bridge that supports these programs. Application forms for Region II Tech Prep are available through the Tech Prep web site (http://www.lcsc.edu/techprep).
