Pre-Engineering
Program

education
curriculum
can
be
expanded
in
both
breadth
and
depth
to
provide
students
with
up
to
a
4-year
high
school
program.
Each
year
can

customized
with
specific
projects
and
technologies

Extensive
Articulation
to
College
The
ITC
curriculum
in
its
expanded
format
of
2-4
years
enables
students
to
articulate
to
colleges
and
universities
with
substantial
credit.
The
content
is
keyed
to
specific
technical
courses
so
students
can
receive
required
course
credit,
not
just
elective
credit.
Integrated
Academic
Applications
The
ITC
project-based
learning
method
strengthens
academic
skills
with
projects
that
have
relevant,
challenging
academic
content.
Projects
are
thematic,
helping
students
develop
a
wide
range
of
academic
skills
from
math
and
science
to
history
and
social
studies.
Skills-Based
Curriculum
The
ITC
curriculum
uses
a
unique
skills-based
design
that
focuses
on
teaching
industry
relevant
technical
skills.
Students
can
begin
developing
credit
toward
college
articulation
during
the
introductory
first
year
of
the
ITC
program.
Workplace
Performance
Skills
Students
learn
how
to
work
on
teams
and
solve
real
world
problems
through
Amatrol’s
team-based
projects
and
the
supporting
project-related
Enterprise
curriculum.
The
Enterprise
curriculum

how
to

problem
solve,
make

and
manage
a
project.
