Technology Foundations helps in
achieving an acceptable level of proficiency in the basic skills necessary for
success in the student’s chosen occupational area.
Full-time students enrolled at
the Technology center will complete the Technology Foundations assessment tests
and will attend the center’s Technology Foundations lab until any deficiencies
are corrected (except health related students who complete another test).
Students attend Technology Foundations in conjunction with their regular
programs.
Technology Foundations provides
program related instruction in Reading for Information, Locating Information,
Applied Math, Writing, Listening, and Teamwork. A qualified faculty member is
available to assist students in obtaining the necessary educational skills to
excel in the program of their choice.
Technology Foundations has three
functions. They are: (1) to server students who need Technology Foundations in
combination with their vocational training; (2) to server persons who wish to
improve their basic skills of reading, math, and/or language skills; (3) to
provide special industry training within the parameters of the Technology
Foundations program.
Once the TTC Technology
Foundations curriculum is complete, students will take the WorkKeys Assessment
for the Career Readiness Certification.
