LCCE Curriculum

One of the main components of our class' curriculum is the Life Centered Career Education (LCCE) curriculum.  LCCE is an educational system designed to provide special education students and other at-risk students with the important skills needed to function successfully as productive workers and independent citizens.  LCCE is not intended to replace conventional education but rather to refocus it.

Daily Living

Personal-Social

Occupational

 

 

This curriculum is based on the position that career education is more than just a part of the educational program;  it is a major focus of the program.

The Life Centered Career Education curriculum underscores this point with its emphasis on daily living skills, personal-social skills, and occupational skills, all supported by academic skills. 

nThis is not to imply that career education is the only education students should receive, but it should be a significant and pervasive part of what is taught. 

nCareer education is not simply another name for occupational education. Instead, it is education that focuses on facilitating growth and development for all life roles, settings and events.
