Imperial Valley College 2+2+2 Project Handbook.
Marquez, Ralph
This handbook of the Imperial Valley College (IVC) 2+2+2 Project provides an overview of the development of an articulated education program for business and law enforcement careers, involving six local high schools and San Diego State University, Imperial Valley Campus. Following a brief introduction to the 2+2+2 project in section I, section II outlines the projects' goals which include plans: (1) to implement an articulated career education program with each of the local high schools; (2) to implement an outreach program to recruit local high school students; (3) to provide support services to IVC program participants; (4) to implement a work experience component; and (5) to involve advisory groups in order to institutionalize the program. Section III reviews project structure, including the plan of operation and staffing, while section IV describes the articulation efforts which targeted the curricular areas of Math, English and Business. High school and community outreach is discussed in section V, including the creation of curriculum pathway brochures, presentations, career days, and business and law enforcement festivals. In section VI, support services (i.e., counseling and the work experience program), are described. Finally, section VII provides a summary of the project. Appendixes, which comprise the bulk of the handbook, include articulation agreements; outreach and student support materials; and the project budget and contracts. (JSP)
