Course title
Introduction to Occupational Therapy AssistantPre-requisite
BiologyCourse description
Our former 2.5 hour a day for 180-day course MC10 (Human Anatomy & Physiology for Medical Careers) was approved for 1 high school lab science credit and 2 elective/CTE credits. We have had to specify our career paths; thus changing our MC10 class to teach specific standards to each medical career. We are requesting approval for each realigned course to be eligible for the same 1 lab science credit and the 2 elective/CTE credits. Our sending school districts will then vote to accept that credit.
