Contract AwardEducation & TrainingDetected Jun 9, 2026

The agenda proposes approving articulation agreements between Bedford County Technical Center and Pennsylvania Highlands Community College for culinary arts, medical assisting technology, and entrepreneurship. These agreements formalize pathways for students to earn college credit or advanced standing, requiring aligned curriculum, assessment, and potentially program resources. With these agreements in place, the center is deepening its postsecondary partnerships in three specific program areas.This creates ongoing needs for curriculum alignment tools, dual-enrollment/credit-tracking processes, student advising supports, and industry-aligned instructional materials. Vendors can add value by helping ensure these articulated programs meet both secondary and college standards while offering students clear, technology-supported pathways.

Programs involved are culinary arts, medical assisting technology, and entrepreneurship; these are likely current or expanding CTE pathways.
