Many courses at EMCC offer the opportunity to earn college credit in addition to the high school credits you already earn. 

Articulation Agreement

Many programs offer articulation agreements with specific colleges. These agreements allow the student to advance to higher level courses in their area of study at their chosen college (based on the successful completion of an EMCC program). These credits are NOT transferable, which means they only apply to the school with which the agreement was made. Some are at no extra cost to the student, while others charge tuition. Each program varies depending on the sponsoring college. Please check with the EMCC counselors to learn more.

Dual Enrollment

EMCC, Monroe Community College (MCC), and Genesee Community College (GCC) have joined to offer college credit to students while they are attending high school. These credits are transferable to many colleges and universities.(Dual enrollment offerings listed in course book are subject to change).

Who teaches the course?
The EMCC instructor teaches and works closely with college faculty to ensure that course outcomes and objectives are reached.

Will I learn different material than the rest of the class?
Courses offering dual enrollment cover the same curriculum and maintain the same high standards for all students. Students are not required to register for dual enrollment.

What is the benefit of dual enrollment?
When a student completes the course, it appears as a true college credit on an MCC or GCC transcript.

What is the cost?
Students pay only 1/3 the regular tuition per credit hour.

SkillsUSA

SkillsUSA is a national organization serving high school and college students enrolled in training programs in technical, skilled, and service occupations, including health occupations. SkillsUSA prepares America's high performance workers and provides quality education experiences for students in leadership, teamwork, citizenship, and character development and also builds and reinforces self-confidence, work attitudes, and communications skills. This organization exemplifies and supports those principles shared with the Eastern Monroe Career Center, including total quality at work, high ethical standards, superior work skills, life-long education, and pride in the dignity of work.

Class Ambassadors 

As ambassadors for EMCC, peer leaders exemplify standards of professionalism, responsibility, leadership, school pride, positivity, and empathy. To become a peer leader, students must be selected by their teachers.

Activities include:

• • Assisting with visitation day, open house, and new student orientation
  • Participating in community service projects
  • Attending team-building field trips

Students in Basic and/or Advanced courses who achieve the following criteria are eligible for the National Technical Honor Society (NTHS):

• 90% grade average
• 95% attendance
• Demonstration of leadership, and citizenship (responsibility, positive attitude, community service)
• Teacher recommendation

Students who successfully complete an approved career and technical education program earn a technical endorsement (seal) on their Regents diploma by:

• Completing all high school graduation requirements, including Regents or approved alternatives
• Completing a work based experience and employability profile
• Passing a state or national technical assessment (assessments are subject to change)

Students who receive this endorsement can be proud of achieving challenging academic and industry standards.

EMCC courses provide opportunities for on-the-job work experience. Students work side-by-side with professionals in the field, gaining valuable knowledge, and using the skills learned in EMCC courses. Work experience options include:

Internship

Students are assigned by their teacher to observe and participate (without pay) in work activities related to their technical curriculum. The major objective is for students to acquire expanded learning through exposure to a functionally related work-site with a hands-on experience.

Co-op

Upon successful completion of an internship, students who have mastered entry-level job skills can be placed by their teacher into paid employment that is directly related to their EMCC training. The objective of a co-op is for students to practice more advanced skills in a real employment setting, while still under the guidance of the classroom instructor. Students also benefit from earning a wage while they are learning.
