ATC redesign seeks phased shift to seven teachers and new engineering program
The plan advances a two phase move to convert the Career Center into an extension campus by reducing academic staff from 14 to seven for fall 2009. It adds Project Lead the Way engineering, science credits for technology courses, more college credit offerings, and ServSafe certifications, with nearly $400000 in lab renovations to support food, fashion, and tech programs as phase two unfolds and phase three expands technology classes.

CdsD Eyes Wind Energy and Therapy Programs With Partners
CdsD district weighs partnerships with Odessa College and UTPB to develop wind energy and physical therapy programs due to strong labor demand. Roark notes additions in plant operation instrumentation remote systems and electrical systems. The plan aims to benefit students and the labor market, not just new programs. Caballero expresses disappointment that next year’s class will be the last full time cohort at the former Career Center, but praises it as a place where students can take classes.
