The Tuscola Technology Center is able to provide job placement assistance to all students. TTC job placement assistance is designed to help find full-time, part-time or temporary jobs. The TTC placement effort is composed of program instructors who take an active placement role for each of their students and a Placement Coordinator who coordinates all placement efforts.

On-the-job training opportunities may include:

• Job Shadowing - Short-term usually a one to two day experience. Students have the opportunity to see what it is like to work in an occupation. Job shadowing is a non-paid experience.
  

• Work Experience - May be paid or non-paid and last anywhere from a few days to three weeks. This activity is also designed to give students an idea of what working in the occupation is actually like. Work experience may lead to the hiring of a student into a co-op position.
  

• Co-op - Work-based learning opportunity available to students after they have completed instruction in a particular career area. Students work in a position related to their classroom instruction. They are paid for their co-op positions and also receive additional training at the work site.
  

• Apprenticeship - Program which gives students the chance to learn a skill from the best professionals in the business. Their pay scale is predetermined based on a percentage of what a journeyman would make. Apprenticeships vary in length from one to five years and are combined with classroom instruction that leads to a college degree. During the apprenticeship, the employer pays for the students wages and college classes. There are over 800 apprentice occupations.
  

• High school credit is given to all students for their work-based learning experiences.
