What is a Program of Study? A single career pathway based on high-skill, high-wage occupations; begins at the secondary level and continues into a postsecondary institution through a degree plan, a major, etc. (Example pathways: allied health, information technology, engineering)

Purpose of the POS Clearinghouse Identify successful programs based upon 5 criteria that have been set forth by OVAE. Distribute information about the successful programs in a searchable database so that other schools can build new programs based upon flourishing models. Help foster successful Career and Technical Education.

Criterion #1 A coherent, articulated sequence of courses, offered to students on a voluntary basis, which begin in high school, include rigorous academic courses as well as career and technical courses, and culminate in an industry-recognized certificate, registered apprenticeship, or associate or baccalaureate degree.

Criterion #2 The high school academic component must, at a minimum, be made up of the same core courses that have been identified by the state as necessary preparation for enrollment in postsecondary institutions.

Criterion #3 The career and technical component must be developed in partnership with business and employer groups and prepare students for self-supporting employment in high- demand occupational areas.

Criterion #4 At the secondary level, programs must prepare students for both successful achievement of State academic standards and more advanced work related to their occupational area of interest, and should offer opportunities for 11th and 12th graders to earn dual/concurrent enrollment credit.

Criterion #5 At the postsecondary level, programs must be open to enrollment by adults who meet academic prerequisites, whether or not they were enrolled at the secondary level.

Clearinghouse Process Partnerships are asked to complete an initial survey to determine if they meet the criteria. The programs that mostly meet the criteria are invited to provide more in depth information about factors that make their program successful. Selected programs are included in the POS Clearinghouse so that other schools may benefit from their knowledge.

Two Categories of the Clearinghouse Successful Programs Successful Programs –A program that meets criterion one and completely meets at least 2 of the other criteria as well. These programs are characterized by a seamless transition from secondary to postsecondary schooling. Emerging Programs Emerging Programs –A promising POS that meets Criterion One and is on a path to fully meet two or more of the other criteria soon. These programs are characterized by a seamless transition from secondary to postsecondary schooling. Programs often young or newly developed.
