First and foremost, I would like to inform you that our beloved Tech Prep Regional Center has found a new fiscal home at the East Central Ohio Educational Service Center. Our transition to this new location brings about a change in my contact information as well. |

I want to assure you that while the fiscal agent has changed, the Tech Prep Regional Center will continue to provide the same exceptional assistance and services as always. Our commitment to supporting and empowering our students, educators, and community remains steadfast.

The Office of Career-Technical Education has opened an additional CTE-26 provider application period for Industry Credential Only programs from July 1, 2023, through August 15, 2023. The purpose of this additional window is to allow districts and schools the opportunity to seek approval from the Office of Career-Technical Education for new Industry Credential Only programs.
Please begin checking for industry credential-only program applications. As a reminder, these programs should focus on one career field or cluster (such as business, marketing, and finance) and lead to 12 points of industry credentials. |
