The Davis Technical College (Davis Tech) is an opportunity for high school students to participate in a COLLEGE level learning experience. It provides opportunities for skill development, work experience, and career preparation in a variety of certificate programs. These programs include careers in the following areas: business and technology, construction, health professions, manufacturing, service professions, and transportation. Certification is available upon completion of a program.

Important information and Registration Procedures:

  • Courses count as Career & Technical Education (CTE) or Elective High School Credit.
  • Students must be on track for graduation and cleared by the counselor.
  • Students need to complete and turn in an application and understand and sign the accompanying disclosure statement. Forms should be picked up in the Career Center and completed forms should be returned to the Career Center.
  • When students are able to go, they will be contacted by Kari or Lindsay and told what mini-term they will start and how to apply online with Davis Tech. Do not apply online without talking to Kari or Lindsay first.
  • Students will need to be registered and pay the $40 application fee before the mini-term starts. Kari or Lindsay will walk you through this step.
  • Students will need to pay a $40 student fee each year. For other possible costs, go to the Davis Tech website and find your program. If paying for fees/books/supplies is a burden, you may request a Needs Based Scholarship Application from the Career Center.
