Four years high school students took the opportunity of early college access and dual enrolment program by taking college courses while they are at a high school. In recent years several states including Maryland supported the development of a new model of early college access program for high school students called Pathways in Technology Early College High Schools (P-TECH) 9-14 schools. With the P-TECH 9-14 school model in six years or less students graduate with a high school diploma and a no cost two-year associate degree in STEM fields. This paper discusses the recently developed new P-TECH transportation program at Baltimore City Community College. The program focuses on the supply chain management career pathway to meet the present and future needs of the region. P-TECH schools work with industry partners and a local community college to ensure an up-to-date curriculum that is academically rigorous and economically relevant. P-TECH programs also include mentoring, workplace visits and instruction on the skills needed for the industry and paid internships and job consideration with the partnering companies.
