specific assessment. TAP credit is currently offered in:

Work-Based Learning

Cooperative education is an alternative method of instruction for career and technology education students who,
through written cooperative arrangements between the career center and employers, receive instruction at an
appropriate work site in business and industry. The experience must be planned and supervised by the school and
employers so that it contributes to the student’s education and employability.
