Redesigning the transition from
Secondary to Postsecondary Education.
Commissioner Brenda Cassellius, Chancellor Steven Rosenstone,
MOHE Director Larry Pogemiller
• align high school assessment with measures of readiness for
post-secondary education;
• provide targeted support while students are in high school if
students are not on track to being ready for post-secondary
education;
• increase opportunities for high school students to earn postsecondary credits earlier when they are ready for post-secondary
education;
•
better align students’ educational plans with workforce needs.

Perkins programs of study – articulated credits.
“Everyone is in agreement that we should pursue
policy/procedure language on articulating K12
agreements and ensure they are transcripted in some
way and can transfer from institution to institution. It
would include the need to create a state wide
articulation repository.”
Metro Alliance CAO meeting 2/1/2013
