technology careers through both high school and college course work in the areas of Graphic
Communications (GC), Public Safety (PS) and Welding & Fabrication (WE). The MOCTC is a
partnership between the Mecosta-Osceola Intermediate School District and Baker College of Cadillac.

The MOCTC is designed to offer high school student an accelerated pathway to a technical certificate

Fabrication (WE). The MOCTC partnership allows for student to participate in the college program at
little to no cost. Courses offered at MOCTC will be little to no cost to the student. Due to the monetary
investment provided on behalf of each student, enrollment is competitive and should be taken
seriously.
A student interested in the MOCTC will begin a discussion with his/her high school guidance
counselor early on in his/her high school career and begin to align coursework, attendance practices,
and social skills in such a way as to make him/her eligible. Interested students, meeting admission
requires, will complete the application process in the spring of their sophomore year in conjunction
with the next year scheduling process.
Students admitted to the MOCTC are making a 3 year commitment that begins at the onset of their
junior year of high school. Student must be on track for graduation. MOCTC students are enrolled in
the Mecosta-Osceola Career Center GC, PS or WE programs. During the junior and senior year MOCTC
students spends half of their day the home high school and half the day at the MOCC. Time spent at
the MOCC will be aligned with degree specific lab and classroom coursework. Depending on
scheduling needs at the home school, it is possible for the student to work on other degree specific
coursework through online or direct credit formats. During the 3rd year (13th year) of the program
student will spend their day between the MOCC and the Baker College campus completing the
remainder of their degree specific coursework.
Upon successful completion of the 13th year, students will be awarded a high school diploma from
their home high school and a technical certificate and/or an associate’s degree from Baker College.

Student can use to make choices about career options. Most Students will begin the EDP process
during middle school. It is in the best interest of a Student to use an EDP to focus and plan in
order to successfully complete graduation requirements and prepare for the transition to postsecondary education and on to the world of work. To update an EDP, Students may log in to
www.careercruising.com to access their account.
