College Tech Prep
This website is a tool by which Edgecombe County Public Schools students and staff can better their understanding of the opportunities available to our secondary students as they relate to the students’ potential career choices.
The Edgecombe County College Tech Prep Consortium is a partnership between regional Business and Industry, Edgecombe Community College and Edgecombe County Public Schools. Edgecombe County College Tech Prep serves students from all Edgecombe County High Schools.
College Tech Prep is driven by the desire to enhance the quality of instruction and opportunities for students bound for an associate degree, diploma, or certificate from Edgecombe Community College.
The centerpiece our College Tech Prep program is the Academy programs which are ECC linked to ECC degrees. Students take community college courses on the ECC campus during the third and fourth periods of their high school schedule during their junior and senior years. Many students graduate from high school with not only their high school diploma but with an ECC certificate as well.
