Career Pathways |
Our Career Pathways allow students to pursue an industry-recognized credential which allows students to experience education while working. Industry Recognized Credential Pathways in Ohio also allow students to pursue an alternative pathway to graduation. With Industry Recognized Credentials Students learn more deeply by practicing and applying their knowledge through work and employment experiences – learning through work. They learn about workplace expectations in terms of professional skills needed for employment, as well as learning about career pathways and what the labor market for particular occupations looks like – learning about work. They also learn job-specific skills they will need to perform day-to-day tasks – learning for work. |
College Pathways |
As part of the North Shore College Pathway students may use to meet the test requirement for graduation is a college and career readiness test. The two tests that meet this pathway are the ACT and SAT. Colleges and universities use the ACT and SAT to determine student readiness for the rigors of higher education. These institutions generally expect that students who earn "remediation-free" scores will be able to succeed in their college courses. |
