CAREER PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT Career development is a comprehensive and sequential educational concept designed to provide individuals with the necessary information and experiences to prepare them for living and working in an ever-changing economy, society, and environment. The “Principles” classes in each cluster are developmental instructional courses designed to prepare students to have a greater understanding of educational and career opportunities and options and to assist them in making meaningful and informed career choices. The objectives of the Career and Technical Education Department at Longview High School in preparing young people to live and work in the ever-evolving future are as follows: To provide all students an opportunity to gain an understanding of their own interests, abilities, aptitudes, and strengths. To provide all young people an opportunity to develop an individual portfolio of valuable career development foundation skills. To provide young people an opportunity to gain valuable career information and related job training options and opportunities. To provide an opportunity for all young people to become acquainted with various forms of employment and to develop job acquisition and job retention skills. To provide all young people an opportunity to experience hands-on activities for selfappraisal purposes and for exploratory career experiences. To provide all young people an opportunity to develop a tentative career and educational plan relevant to their individual interests, abilities, aptitudes, and goals. Want to Earn College Credit While in High School? Longview ISD provides a large number of programs that prepare students for post high school experiences such as college/university, business school, technical school, military service, fine arts participation, and full-time employment. The programs offered at our high schools allow a student to select the program that prepares them to meet the challenges of the future they have chosen. Building skills in their area of interest through a coherent sequence of high school classes allows the students to be well prepared to enter college, technical school, or the work force. Planning ahead and using your time wisely not only can help you build your skills but also can earn you college credit while taking courses in high school. Students can include courses in their graduation plans that may apply toward academic and/or technical degrees at colleges and universities statewide. Students may earn college credits immediately, earn “banked” credit (Tech- Prep Credit), or prepare to test-out of a college degree requirement. High school courses taken for this purpose should help advance a student’s career goal and/or count toward a two or four year college degree in a student’s area of interest. METHODS TO GAIN COLLEGE CREDIT High school students participating in Tech Prep Programs may earn college credit by a methods listed below. They must make a “B” or above in their high school class and probably have to take a comprehensive exam at the end of the class to prove competency and expertise. These classes may count as an Advanced Measure on the Distinguished Achievement Graduation plan for high school graduation.
