Dr. Sam Cotton

This course will be offered during the Spring 2008 semester online.  Students will not have to visit campus.  All that is needed is access to the Internet, whether at home or work.  Enjoy "going to class" when convenient.  The course is tentatively scheduled to be offered during the spring semester each year.

This course is designed to provide the student with an understanding of the organizational structure, responsibilities, and roles recognized in the operation of career and technical education. The Teacher Education and Certification Handbook (TEACH) requires that all career and technical education teachers and administrators have a course in the organization and coordination of vocational education.  Indiana is currently undergoing a change in licensing requirements.  Under the new rules (Rules 2002), this course content will still play an important part in meeting these new requirements.
