School district technical center and community college faculty committee met and agreed to propose that the 1800 clock hour program in Structural Drafting shall articulate twelve (12) college credit hours to the AAS/AS Degree in Drafting and Design.  This agreement does not preclude but encourages the awarding of additional credits by any college through local agreements.
