The Career-related Programme has been designed to support and complement a career-related study. At International High School our career-related study is Engineering. Students enrolled in the Career-related Programme will be following the Project Lead The Way Curriculum. 

The career-related study is offered and awarded by the school and should be aligned with student needs and progress toward further studies or direct employment.

Each school chooses the career-related study most suited to local conditions and the needs of their students. It is important that the career-related study has a clear career focus. The school must report satisfactory completion of the career-related study to the IB via IB Information Systems (IBIS).

The career-related study prepares students for further or higher education, an internship or apprenticeship, or a position in a designated field of interest. It provides the opportunity for students to learn about theories and concepts through application and practice while developing broad-based skills in authentic and meaningful contexts.

The nature of the career-related study will be examined carefully by the IB during the authorization process and must meet the criteria as outlined below.
