Program Description


If you've got a career goal in mind and have not been able to find just the right educational program to help you prepare for it, the Individualized Technical Studies program could be what you're looking for.

This program allows you to combine courses from two or more major areas of study into an Associate of Applied Science Degree that meets your career preparation goals. You begin by completing a program plan outlining your career objectives and the courses you'll need to meet those objectives.

This program is designed to focus on your needs and plans:
• Provides the flexibility to meet your educational needs based on your career goals
• Accepts that your goals cannot be achieved through enrollment in any single instructional program offered at CVTC, and allows you to create your own educational program
• Allows you to pursue the Associate of Applied Science Degree full- or part-time
• Works with employers to provide a flexible program of study to meet the educational needs of their employees

The Individualized Technical Studies program may be just what you need to help take your career to the next level.
