TOPS Tech Pathways

DECAF will focus on four aligned Jump Start 2.0 pathways:

Agriculture, Food & Natural Resources; Business Management; Arts, A/V Technology & Communication; and Hospitality & Tourism.

 

These pathways were selected because they share a strong group of overlapping courses, allowing students to build stackable credits across agriculture, media, business, food systems, hospitality, and creative production. Each pathway is designed around a 9-Carnegie Unit minimum, with many students intentionally earning 9.5–11 Carnegie Units when additional coursework strengthens credential completion, portfolio development, internships, or advanced specialization.
