Alternative Assessment

Career and Technical Education Pathway. (Caretakers may remember these as Vo-techs.) Engagement in the trades is something CCA can really get behind – that’s where the jobs are! But instead of a Career and Technical Center -where the road ends with Gr. 12 - CCA really leans into robust postsecondary partnerships in the trades via the Evidence-Based Graduation Pathway, where you’ll find two options:

• “Successful completion of any concurrent or postsecondary course” allows students to begin their postsecondary studies while they’re still in high school! We call these CHS at CCA and the best part of these options are the stackable credentials students can earn. These credentials mean better jobs with higher pay!

• “Acceptance into an institution of higher education” – this means admission to a trade or technical school, a community college, or any postsecondary school relative to the student’s interest.
