WHAT IS ATC???

• PART II---ATC training is a one hour session where high school teachers meet with a college instructor that teaches the college course equivalent to the high school ATC course.  The teacher and the college instructor discuss how the curriculum of the high school course should be modified to match that of the college course.  Teachers wishing to be approved for more than one ATC course must attend a separate Part II session for each course.

• TEACHER REQUIREMENTS FOR ATC APPROVAL:

Teachers must meet one of the two following requirements to be approved to teach a course for Advanced Technical Credit:
Requirement 1: The teacher must have a baccalaureate degree or higher with a major in the teaching discipline.
OR
Requirement 2: The teacher must have a minimum of an associate degree and 3 years verifiable non-teaching work experience directly related to the teaching discipline.
PLEASE NOTE:
Non-degreed individuals will not be eligible for ATC approval.
Certain ATC courses have additional requirements because their equivalent college courses are subject to accreditation by an external agency or prepare students for licensure or certification.
