Tech Prep Graduates
The Tech Prep program connects high school and career center students with career-oriented pathways in college.
Students in career technology programs and area high schools may receive college credit for their high school technology training. We have articulations with career centers and high schools in Clark, Champaign, Logan and Greene counties.
We also offer an Associate of Technical Studies degree for students whose technical skills are not offered in a specific technical degree program. This is offered to career center and high students in career tech programs such as carpentry, cosmetology, welding and others.
Tech Prep graduates should use the general admissions process to enroll at Clark State.
Tech Prep graduates can learn more about career options through Clark State's Career Services Office.
