Greater San Jose Tech Prep Education Consortium

Our Mission
Our mission is to prepare students for their futures by collaborating with local educational institutions.

Tech Prep
Tech Prep is an integrated school-to-career educational partnership program.  We help students explore and train for career options by integrating high school/adult education with community college education.  We assist students to "jump-start" their future career pursuits.  With the Tech Prep program, students take articulated courses in high school/adult education that count towards college credit for advanced certificates and associate degrees.

What is Articulation?
Articulation involves creating joint agreements between high schools/adult education programs and community colleges concerning the content of course curriculum.  Articulation agreements are created to allow students to receive advanced college credit for courses that they successfully complete at the high school/adult education level.

As a result of articulation agreements, repetition of course work is minimized at the community colleges.  The end result produces students who are "jump-started" on their higher educational and career pursuits.  Check out our articulated courses.
