Texas Tech Prep Environmental Scan of Partner Opinions: An Assessment of Effectiveness
Waller, Sharon Kay; Waller, Lee
Community College Journal of Research and Practice, v28 n7 p625-635 Aug 2004
Tech Prep is a federal education initiative funded by the Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Technical Education Act initially authorized in 1990 then reauthorized in 1998. Texas HB 2401 subsequently established the parameters for the operation of Tech Prep in Texas. Texas has 26 regional consortia that coordinate the delivery of services between secondary school districts and two-year colleges under the leadership of consortium directors. The research reported in this paper examined the effectiveness of these consortia based upon an opinion survey administered to Texas Tech Prep consortia directors, community college technical administrators, and secondary technical program directors.
