Special Populations program is a federally funded program which provides remediation
to students in career and technical courses.
Special populations鈥� services focus on recruitment, enrollment, instruction, retention,
completion, placement, and follow-up of special populations preparing for high skill,
high
wage occupations and/or nontraditional employment in new and emerging careers. The
purpose of instructional services rendered by special populations personnel is to
enable
special populations students to experience success in their chosen career and technical
education programs. Student Services Coordinators may provide instruction for the
disadvantaged career and technical student in areas including mathematics, reading,
and writing in addition to any assistance needed in their career and technical classes.
The instruction is coordinated with the career and technical instructor and services
are
delivered concurrently with enrollment in a career and technical education program.
A diverse method of instruction is used in providing services to those identified
students.
Students receive a variety of instructions ranging from individualized instruction
to
updated computer remediation programs. This process is to ensure that those students
master competencies and learn employability skills to prepare them for post-secondary
opportunities and to assist them in becoming successful in the world of work.
