enter and advance in college and/or their
careers comprise the foundation of a POS.

Editor's Notes
Welcome to Moving from Programs of Study to Rigorous Programs of Study in Oklahoma
Programs of Study is a part of school improvement. It is a part of the work done by SREB, mentioned in Pathways to Prosperity and is the new vision for CTE of the National State Directors. It is currently a requirement in Carl Perkins. It is the right thing to do for students regardless of what happens to Perkins funding.
Some say Programs of Study are Tech Prep on steroids! Many of the elements of Tech Prep are found in the Programs of Study.
Current definition
Programs of Study are more than a Plan of Study, or Individual Career Plan. POS starts at the Cluster level.
One of four minimum components of a Program of Study as defined in Carl Perkins.

Oklahoma was one of four participants with Minnesota, Kentucky and Guam. Conducted by the National Research Center for CTE at the University of Louisville.
We knew that this was an issue. Programs of Study are called Plans of Study, Career Majors, etc.
We worked with a researcher from the University of Louisville. The results of the study confirmed that there was confusion.
ODCTE will now reference Individual Career Plan, or ICP, instead of Plans of Study.
We are conducting the OK Programs of Study Institute this fall.
