Eligible
Courses & how to obtain your credit
WHAT: Tech
Prep is a way to start a college technical major in high school.
In a Tech Prep program, you begin your course of study in high
school and continue in a community or technical college. The
result is a
certificate or an associate of applied science (AAS) degree. Some
technical courses may also apply toward a four-year degree.
Courses
are taught by the local high school teacher who has received
training from Austin Community College professors. The courses are
taught at a college level on the high school campus.
Student
must receive an 80 or better on the course work to obtain the
college credit.
The
credit is referred to as “Credit-in-Escrow”.
WHEN: You
may obtain the credit once you have enrolled and taken at least
once course with ACC.
Under
our agreement with ACC you will not be charged tuition or fees for
the “Credit-in-Escrow” earned at Hays CISD.
You
must claim your credit within 24 months of graduation from high
school.
HOW: Most
credits will have been entered by your high school teacher into
the CATEMA system. The CATEMA systems is a web system designed to
keep track of various Career and Technology information and allows
our teachers to recommend credit to ACC.
Students
must enter their student information including their social
security number into the CATEMA system. This needs to be entered
during the class period while the student is enrolled in a Tech
Prep course. With out this information, students may not receive
their credits.
If
the credit has not been entered into the CATEMA system or you are
requesting credit for a course taken before 2003, you may contact
the Hays CISD Career and Technology Coordinator to fax the
recommendation to ACC.

following information will chart the high school courses that may be

Courses
may change over the time and teacher certification may also affect
