Career & Technical Education
What is the purpose of Career & Technical Education?
The purpose of Career & Technical Education is to provide
learning experiences in which all students become aware
of a broad spectrum of careers, and develop skills that are
adaptable to personal and career roles and for entry into
employment, and to provide students so electing, learning
experiences which will develop skills necessary to
employment in specific career areas or postsecondary
study thereof, thereby preparing students for life as
productive members of society.
New York State Education Department
Availability of Career and Technical
Education and Arts Sequences
All public school districts are required to offer students the
opportunity to complete a three or five-unit sequence in
Career and Technical Education and the Arts.
All public school districts must offer students the
opportunity to begin an approved sequence in the arts in
grade nine.
All public school districts are also required to provide
students the opportunity to begin an approved Career and
Technical Education sequence in grade nine. Only those
Career and Technical Education sequences which have
been approved by
the Commissioner may be used to fulfill the requirements
for a diploma set forth in section 100.5 of the Regulations
of the Commissioner of Education relating to general
education and diploma requirements (July 2001).
For students first entering grade nine in 1985 and
thereafter, each approved Career and Technical Education
sequence shall include Career and Financial Management,
to be offered at any point in the sequence.
For students first entering grade nine in 1988 and
thereafter, approved sequences of three units of credit
in a Career and Technical Education subject shall be so
organized that they may be extended into approved
sequences of five units of credit or more without loss of
credit.
For students first entering grade nine in 1988 and
thereafter, approved sequences of five units of credit or
more in Career and Technical Education shall prepare
students for both employment and postsecondary
education, and shall be satisfactory to the Commissioner.
All public school districts shall offer students the
opportunity to meet the learning standards in
technology. Districts shall choose one or more options
to meet this requirement, pursuant to section 100.5 of
the Regulations of the Commissioner.

SED Policy on Number of Units/
Credits/Integration
CR 100.2 (w) Credit for BOCES Programs
(1) Each board of cooperative educational services (BOCES) shall determine the number of units of credit that will be earned
by students successfully completing units of study in each of the instructional programs of the BOCES. The number of units of
credit that may be earned for each program shall be determined after consultation with boards of education of the component
school districts.
(2) In awarding credit toward a high school diploma, boards of education shall award to students who have successfully
completed a BOCES program, the number of units of credit determined by the BOCES pursuant to paragraph (1) of this
subdivision.
Policy
The State sequences of career & technical education have been developed on the basis of the number of units of study, as such
units of study are defined by Commissioner’s Regulation 100.1 (a), considered to be necessary for mastery of the learning
outcomes to be achieved.
It is therefore, a policy of the State Education Department that a student who has mastered the learning outcomes of an
approved career & technical education program requiring 3 or 4-units of study has acquired a 3-unit sequence, and a student
who has mastered the outcomes of a program requiring 5 or more units of study has acquired an extended sequence toward
satisfaction of diploma requirements.
These provisions do not preclude the earning of units of credit under the “testing out” provisions of Commissioner’s
Regulation 100.1(b)(2).
SED Policy for Career Technical Endorsement and Academic Credit
Students who participate in an approved Career and Technical Education program will:
• Pass five required Regents examinations or alternative approved by the State Assessment Panel.
• Complete a minimum of units of credit required for graduation.
• Complete a maximum of one unit of credit in: English, mathematics, science and economics and government.
This is done through a fully integrated program with documentation of academic core requirements, specialized Career and
Technical Education or a combination of the two approaches.
Under Section 100.2(w) of the regulations of the Commissioner of Education, all students who participate in an approved
Career and Technical Education program at a BOCES, must receive equal credit for the completion of these courses. Approval
by the Department of the Career and Technical Education program affirms that this allocation of credit is appropriate. Boards
of Education must award credit in the amount determined by the BOCES and approved by the Department.” For those students
who have met the criteria for a technical endorsement, the Board of Education shall also affix to the diploma the appropriate
endorsement.”
A unit of credit is defined as 180 minutes of instruction per week for a period of 36 weeks. As the Wilson Tech session
provides 2.75 hours of instruction daily, this equates to 4.5 units of credits per year.

Dual Enrollment
Regulation Ed.L.2045 Non-resident
attendance
If a pupil resides in a district wherein high school courses
are offered, but no career and technical high school is
available therein, or if career and technical high school
courses are not available in the academic school or schools
designed as herein provided, such pupil may select and
attend any other academic school within the state in which
career and technical courses are available, and the tuition
charged, if any, in excess of the difference between the
cost of educating such pupil and the apportionment of
public moneys on account of the attendance of such pupil,
is hereby declared a charge upon the district in which such
pupil resides, except, however, the cost of transportation of
such pupil need not be paid by such district.
Should a career and technical education course not be
available in the school district of residence or local
BOCES that district, in order to provide access to the
career technical education program,
may
elect to contract
with another district or board of cooperative educational
services for instruction in that subject but must pay
nonresident tuition.
Dual Enrollment of Students
from Private Schools
Under Section 3602-c of Education Law students from a
component district attending a private school must be
provided the opportunity to participate in the Career &
Technical Education programs and services available to
students attending the component high schools. Such
attendance is commonly referred to as “Dual Enrollment.”
Dual enrollment provisions apply to programs operated
during the course of the school year and not to
summer programs. Nonpublic school pupils are eligible to
participate in public school summer programs in the school
districts in which they live on the same basis as any other
resident pupils.
In these instances the enrollment application is endorsed
by both the private school (who will identify course and
session) and the component district.
Attendance and grade reports are sent to the private
school, with student appearing on the component district
enrollment roster.
Transportation to the regional center for career and
technical education is the responsibility of the students’
home district. The board of education must provide
transportation between a nonpublic school and the site
where the program is offered if the distance is more than
one-fourth of a mile. The board may claim State aid for
this transportation.
In order to arrange for participation in a career and
technical education program, the parent of a nonpublic
pupil must file a written request with the board of
education of the district in which the pupil resides by June
1. The administrator of a nonpublic school may receive
and forward the requests for the parents to the board of
education. Requests should be filed as early as possible so
that they can be considered by the board as plans are made
and budgets written. Most school districts have this
process under way by winter of the year preceeding the
year for which the request is made, though the legal
deadline is June 1. Participation in a career and technical
education program does not involve the payment of tuition
by parents or pupils.

Cross Contract Information
Students from outside the Western Suffolk BOCES region
may attend our career and technical programs, provided
that their district superintendent submits a formal request
for services, (see form). This is referred to as a cross
contract in which there is a three step process:
1. The School Superintendent of the district requesting
service contacts its local BOCES to request the service.
2. The district Superintendent of the district’s BOCES
signs the cross-contract form and forwards it to the
BOCES which may provide the service.
3. The District Superintendent of BOCES willing to
provide the service signs the cross contract form and
distributes it to the School Superintendent of the district
requesting the service and the district’s local BOCES
District Superintendent.

Equal Opportunities for all Students
Elimination of Sex Bias and Stereotyping in Career & Technical
Education
The Career & Technical Education Division has
established the following goals to insure equal
opportunities for all students at both the secondary and
adult levels.
(a) Admissions policies will not prevent any students
from entering a career and technical course because of
gender or ethnicity.
(b) All recruitment and counseling will provide
information to all interested individuals and will not
imply, directly or through omission, that certain
careers are more appropriate for one sex than another.
(c) All recruitment methods and materials will promote
equal enrollment and discuss equal opportunities in all
occupational courses.
(d) All courses will strive to have a representative number
of females or males in non-traditional female or male
courses.
ASSURANCE OF COMPLIANCE WITH TITLE IX OF THE
EDUCATION AMENDMENTS OF 1972 AND THE
REGULATIONS ISSUED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF
HEALTH, EDUCATION, AND WELFARE IN
IMPLEMENTATION THEREOF:
Admissions Policy:
The Career & Technical Education program will not:
1. Deny admission to any student on the basis of gender or
give preference to students on the basis of gender
through:
(a) Ranking applicants separately on the basis of gender
or ethnicity.
(b) Applying numerical limitations on the proportion of
students admitted by gender.
(c) Using differential admissions criteria on the basis of
gender, use of tests which have a disproportionate
adverse effect on members of the opposite gender
unless the use of such tests has shown that they will
validly predict success in the program and no other tests
are available.
2. Apply any rule concerning the actual or potential
parental, family, or marital status of a student which
treats persons differently on the basis of gender.
3. Make pre
‑
admission inquiries as to the marital status of
students. Also, no student will, on the basis of gender,
be provided counseling service which:
(a) Differentiates by gender in career counseling.
(b) Differentiates by gender in individual counseling.
(c) Suggests the appropriateness of courses by gender.
(d) Provides counseling or testing instruments which
require different treatment of results or separate
classifications of occupations by gender.
(e) Provides materials that state or imply, directly or
through omission, that certain academic, career, or
personal choices are more appropriate for one gender
than the other.
(f) Assigns members of the counseling staff solely on
the basis of gender.

Enrollment Information
Visit Wilson Tech
Prospective students are encouraged to visit Wilson Tech
during their sophomore year. School orientations are
arranged by the Tech counselor and the Home School
liaison at the district’s discretion. Tech allots three
mornings in February and March for home school
visitations. There is also a scheduled Visitor Make-Up
day. Component school districts may request alternative
dates that better meet their scheduling needs.
They can also request additional tours or individual
visits by contacting Tech counselors assigned to specific
campus sites. Every effort will be made to accommodate
these requests.
Unauthorized visitations are not
permitted. Tech students may not bring friends or
visitors to class unless a formal request has been made
by the home high school.
Apply to Wilson Tech
When the decision is made that a student will enroll at
Tech, an application form must be completed and signed
by the student, counselor, parent/guardian and school
nurse. All enrollment applications must be forwarded to
the Admissions office for processing. No student can be
enrolled in a program unless this application process has
been completed.
Tech applications may be completed
online and submitted electronically.
Returning Student Enrollment
Most students attend programs at Wilson Tech for 2 years.
In March, the home school liaison counselor will receive a
roster of currently enrolled students with instructions to:
verify returning students, designate AM/PM sessions and
indicate any program changes. This list is crucial for
determining student enrollment and class size for the
following year. The revised enrollment list should be
submitted to the Admissions Office by, or before, the date
on the accompanying memo.
Wilson Tech Tuition Formula
District commitments to Wilson Tech are determined at
the close of each November billing period. The final
commitment is provided to your superintendent in
December. The formula used to determine the annual
commitment is as follows:
• The two years’ average enrollment of the
November billing will be utilized to establish
each district’s annual commitment.
• Districts exceeding this average may send
additional students for any vacant seat in a
Career and Technical Education program
without any additional charge.
If you have any questions or desire further information,
you may contact the Executive Director, Career and
Technical Education at: (631) 425-9050.

Certificate of Completion / Attendance
The Wilson Tech Certificate of Completion indicates that a
student has met attendance and academic requirements in a
Tech program. Research has shown that a positive record
of program attendance relates directly to success in the
workplace.
In addition to the requirement that students receive a
passing final grade in their Tech programs, students must
also maintain a record of attendance reflecting at least 90%
of the scheduled instructional days in a school year to
receive a Certificate of Completion from Wilson Tech.
Students, who do not meet the 90% attendance criterion
due to extenuating circumstances, will be limited to no less
than 85% attendance. Districts may request in writing that
a student with extenuating circumstances be considered for
a Certificate of Completion.
Extended Absences
If a student is expected to be absent for an extended period
of time, the district should notify Tech. Arrangements can
then be made for Home Instruction. (See “Home
Instruction”.)
Attendance Reports
Daily, weekly and year-to-date reports are available on our
password protected guidance counselors’ website,

Course Requests / Changes
Request for Academic Subjects
Tech offers a variety of academic subjects to assist
students in completing graduation requirements. Integrated
academics are commencement level subjects, approved by
NYS Education Department, and imbedded into the
curriculums of approved Tech programs. As a result, it is
not necessary for students to leave their classrooms to
receive instruction in those subjects. (See current
“Integrated Academics Chart”.)
Upon the district’s request, students may enroll in pull-
out academics. Pull-out classes require students to leave
their Tech programs to receive instruction.
A “Request for Academic & Support Services” form
may be electronically submitted via our website at
www.wilsontech.org or mailed to:
Western Suffolk BOCES
CTE Admissions
PO Box 8007
Huntington Station, NY 11746-9007
In addition, Home School counselors can email
Admissions personnel to inform them of additions,
withdrawals or changes in academic subjects. Requests
may be emailed to lfranzi@wsboces.org or
If the home school would like to add any additional
academic subjects to our course selections, please indicate
subjects on the “Request for Academic & Support
Services” form or call the Admission Office at: 425-9050.
Every effort will be made to accommodate requests.
REMINDER: All academic courses are free of charge to
our participating districts.
Changing Tech Programs
From time to time, students change programs for a variety
of reasons. Before enrolling in a different Tech program,
students have the opportunity to explore or visit another
program before making the decision to transfer.
A “Permission to Visit” form must be endorsed by the
parent/guardian and home school counselor before the
student may visit another course. This also pertains to the
“Permission to Change” form.
Change in Student Status
By policy of the Board of Cooperative Educational
Services, no student can be deleted from a BOCES service
without formal written notification from the district of
residence. If it becomes necessary to withdraw a student
from a Tech program or an academic class, email
Admissions personnel at lf[email protected] or

student performance on a regular basis. Tech counselors
work closely with home school counselors and liaisons to
maximize student success.

Services to Improve Attendance
Wilson Tech attendance is recorded at each daily session
and reviewed by Tech counselors. Districts may access
their own attendance online. Students, parents and districts
are contacted on a regular basis to discuss attendance and
intervention strategies. Tech has implemented an
electronic phone system that alerts parents/guardians of a
student's absence on a daily basis.
Monitoring of Progress
Wilson Tech provides Interim and Grade reports to home
schools and parents (mailed to home address), eight times
per year.
Tech Enrichment (for GCTE Students)
Students needing additional Tech support are briefly pulled
from their classes by certified academic teachers whose
goal is to reinforce necessary skills.
Level 2 & Level 3 Assessments
Interests and aptitudes, derived from the Level 2
Assessment, provide valuable information in the
appropriate placement of GCTE students in Tech
programs.
A Level 3 Assessment is utilized when it becomes
necessary to determine the appropriateness of a student’s
placement while attending a Tech program.
Special Education Consultant Teachers
(for GCTE Students)
Certified Special Education Teachers identify interventions
and implement them with students, teachers, and aides.
Continued follow-up is provided, as necessary, throughout
the year.

Home Instruction/Early Dismissal
Home Schools may request home instruction for students
with extenuating circumstances, long term illness, etc. in
Career & Technical Education programs. To effectively
monitor attendance, grades, certificate requirements, and to
comply with SAVE legislation, the following procedures
for home tutoring students enrolled in Career & Technical
Education programs at Wilson Tech have been established.
• The student’s principal or guidance director/counselor
must send a request for home tutoring on school
stationery to the principal of the Wilson Tech campus
where the student is enrolled. This request must include
the anticipated
starting
and
ending date
of home
instruction and the
number of hours
required
each
week.
• The Tech staff member assigned as tutor will arrange a
convenient schedule with the parent for home tutoring.
A parent must be present during the tutoring.
• Students on approved home tutoring will be marked G
(home tutoring). The absence is assigned a weight of
zero.
• The Tech tutor completes weekly teaching records,
indicating the day, date, number of hours taught, and
parent’s signature. A compilation is forwarded to the
home school on a monthly basis.
NOTE:
Home instruction for up to six (6) weeks or thirty
(30) school days is available for all Wilson Tech students,
including Career-Related Academics at no additional cost
to the district. Request for extensions require additional
documentation.
Early Dismissal
Students, who want to attend Tech, and participate in after-
school clubs, sports or extracurricular activities at their
home school may do so without a conflict. In an effort to
coordinate Tech’s scheduling with a student’s interests,
school districts may request early dismissal for their
impacted students with supporting documentation advising
us of:
• Date(s) and time(s) for early dismissal
• Mode of transportation

Work-Based Learning
Work-based learning is based upon on-the-job observation and participation. Work-based learning can be acquired at Tech or
at the home school.
At Tech:
All Wilson Tech programs include a work-based learning
component. Within the Career and Technical Education
classes, students have the opportunity to participate in Work-
Study and Job Shadowing, Clinical Affiliations, On-site
Clinics and the Automotive Youth Educational Systems.
Work Study Program
Based on teacher recommendations, second-semester seniors
may participate in work-study. This allows students to work
in a job related to their Tech program up to several days per
week during their Tech time. Students must be legally
employed and receive approvals from their home school and
Tech counselors, parents and employer. Once all of the
approvals are in place, a work/study coordinator visits the
employer to verify employment. Pay stubs, evaluations and
attendance verifications are kept on file. Working papers,
available at the student’s home school, are needed for those
under 18. Transportation must be provided by the student.
Job Shadowing
Opportunities for internships and job shadowing are
available and encouraged for students interested in
enhancing their knowledge of careers. Students can work
with their teachers, counselors, job placement and/or work
study coordinators to arrange for this program.
Clinical Affiliations
Five of our CTE programs have a clinical or off site
component added into the curriculum. Currently, students
enrolled in Early Childhood Education, Nurse Assisting,
Medical Assisting, Professional Health Careers and Medical
Laboratory Assisting will spend several days per week at
various related locations. This affords our students the
opportunity to gain invaluable “hands-on” experience that
enhances their overall learning and skill development. It is
anticipated that additional programs will offer an off-site
experience in the coming years. On-site clinical experiences
are available.
Progress and Employability Profile
The Progress and Employability Profile is an assessment
tool used to evaluate students’ “soft skills” and workplace
performance. Districts may utilize the Progress and
Employability Profile as part of a student’s career plan and
to meet the criteria of the Career Development and
Occupational Studies (CDOS) Credential.
Automotive Youth Educational Systems (AYES)
This national school-to-work program, initiated in 1998 by
General Motors is available within our automotive
technology and automotive body repair programs. Job
shadowing, interview techniques and resumé writing are
available to all students. Select juniors will work part-time as
a paid intern, with a mentor in the summer and during their
senior year during Tech time. All placements are with area
car dealerships and certified collision shops affiliated with a
dealership.
At the Home School:
As a shared service, Wilson Tech provides work-based
learning programs for district students staying at the home
school. These programs include: Diversified Career and
Technical Education or Cooperative Education and
Internships.
Diversified Career and Technical Education (DCTE)
or Cooperative Education
This program focuses on developing employability skills
through related instruction and outside work experience.
Students receive credit and wages for part-time work of the
student’s choice. Work hours are recorded on time sheets
and credit is awarded based on the total number of hours
worked. Classroom instruction covers job skills,
interviewing, completing job applications, negotiating
salary, and labor laws. A growing area in DCTE is with the
special education population. A work component is
necessary for a student’s transition plan.
Internships
Unpaid internships are offered to participating districts in
exchange for credit:
• American Sign Language – Cleary School for the Deaf
• Communications – local radio stations
(
WBLI, WBAB)
• Health and Education – James E. Allen Schools
• Pre-Med – Huntington Hospital
• Pre-Veterinary Science – Caleb Smith Park or
Sweetbriar Nature Preserve
• Wall Street Internship – local financial firms.
• Elementary Education–Building Blocks

Youth and Leadership Organizations
Wilson Tech offers each student the opportunity to develop leadership skills through membership in several student leadership
organizations.
SkillsUSA and
Future Farmers of America (FFA)
Youth leadership organizations develop leadership ability,
citizenship, and character development. SkillsUSA and FFA
emphasize respect for the dignity of work, high standards in
trade ethics, craftsmanship, scholarship, and safety on the job.
SkillsUSA and FFA are “professional” organizations
which provide students an added dimension to their Tech
education. This co-curricular program presents practical
opportunities for the development of leadership ability.
Industry-sponsored “Skill Olympic Contests” are held on
local, regional, state, and national levels.
Membership in these national organizations includes
more than 280,000 students, of which more than 12,500
are from New York State. SkillsUSA and FFA are among
the largest national youth organizations in America.
Wilson Tech strongly advocates membership for all
students.
Membership dues are typically $20 for the school year.
A student’s career & technical education teacher will
collect these dues during the first week of school or
thereafter.
FFA membership is geared for Equine Studies and
Veterinary Assisting.
Renaissance Program
Wilson Tech’s Renaissance program encourages students
to meet academic, attendance and professional standards in
their specific programs. Students who meet these criteria
receive special acknowledgement for their efforts, on a
quarterly basis.
National Technical Honor
Society (NTHS)
The National technical Honor Society is
the acknowledged leader in the
recognition of outstanding student
achievement in Career and Technical
Education. NTHS encourages higher
scholastic achievement and cultivates a
desire for personal excellence/ Students
enrolled in CTE programs leading to a
Technical Endorsement, must have a
cumulative average of 92%, no more than 6 absences, pass
all academic subjects and have no suspensions by the end
of the 3
rd
marking quarter. Teachers must also recommend
the students for membership. Students meeting NTHS
criteria are eligible to attend an induction ceremony, earn a
NTHS Certificate and receive up to three letters of
recommendation to either a school or place of
employment, during any point in their lifetime.

Wilson Tech Calendar
Updated annually, the Wilson Tech calendar provides the prescribed number of hours of instruction. Because we serve 18
school districts, there are occasional conflicts between our calendar and a component district’s calendar. When Tech is in
session and the home school is closed or unable to provide transportation a student’s absence will be un-weighted. If this
should occur, please notify the CTE Executive Director’s Office at: mwinser@wsboces.org

Online Courses
Online High School
With a connection to the internet, high school students can
now complete or supplement their high school education at
their own pace. Wilson Technological Center’s Online
Courses for High School Students offers online courses
ranging from credit recovery to Advanced Placement.
With our online learning program, your students can:
• Choose when and where to study.
• Make-up missed credits to graduate on time.
• Solve scheduling conflicts.
• Accelerate to complete high school early.
• Take AP or other courses not offered.
• Study while on medical leave.
School districts can add online courses that meet NYS
Learning Standards to their own curriculum through an
agreement with Western Suffolk BOCES. Take a minute to
see how easy it is to navigate our site. At
www.onlinehs.org
you will find courses that students can
use in three ways:
Virtual
Online courses provide ‘anytime and anywhere’ learning.
Students can complete course material at their own pace in
the comfort of their own home, in your school’s library, or
any remote location. Courses are available 24/7.
Hybrid
Under this option, online courses with quizzes and homework
assignments are offered in a classroom setting. Students can
also access material from home. Hybrid courses can be
utilized in a computer lab environment where a group of
students take individualized courses that are proctored by one
teacher.
Traditional
Teachers in a traditional classroom setting can add an
online component that incorporates related course material,
practice tests and homework
assignments.
Are online courses different?
Online courses are no different than traditional courses
other than in delivery. Course content, length, and
assignments are the same as those that districts expect
from courses in your high school. Grades, credits, and
exams are also the same as traditional courses.
Credit
When students complete all assigned work,
recommendation for credit is made to the home school.
Credit determination, however, is the sole prerogative of
the home school district.
What is needed to enroll?
After the district has committed to enrollment, interested
students must speak to their home school’s guidance
counselor. Districts can link
www.onlinehs.org
to the
website of the district or the high school. Once registered,
students need only a password, user ID, and internet
connectivity to begin an online course.
Support
Western Suffolk BOCES offers technical support that is
just a phone call or email away. A guidance counselor is
also available to work in conjunction with the home school
guidance counselor.
Textbooks
Most courses include an online textbook. Textbooks are
not included for AP courses and some elective courses.
Credit Recovery
A diagnostic-driven credit recovery course provides
another opportunity to students who did not succeed the
first time in the course. Students must demonstrate their
knowledge in each learning unit. If they demonstrate
competency in the unit assessment, they will continue with
the next unit. If they do not demonstrate competency, they
must complete the entire unit before they attempt to
demonstrate competency again.
