Webinar Description

The Office of Career Readiness will host a technical assistance webinar reviewing detailed information for the Early College Model Program NGO. A web link to the technical assistance webinar will be provided via email to all registrants prior to the session.

The Early College Model Program NGO is a limited competitive grant initiative, funded through Fiscal Year 2021 State Appropriation, providing up to $200,000 for a local education agency (LEA) to support an existing early college partnership between the LEA and at least one accredited four-year institution of higher education (IHE).

This partnership will empower a diverse group of underserved high school students, specifically those at risk of not completing postsecondary education, affording them the opportunity to reach their full potential by earning a high school diploma and an associate degree, supportive of career and college counseling, while in high school. The program will allow participants to simultaneously complete requirements towards earning a high school diploma and a postsecondary degree or credential at no cost to the participant or their family. To demonstrate early college model mastery, the partnership between the LEA and the IHE must have been existence for at least five years.
