About ITS
LTC's Individualized Technical Studies (ITS) associate degree is designed
for working adults with unique backgrounds and educational needs that can't
be met by the college's existing associate degree programs.
ITS gives you the option to create your own associate degree program. Let's say
you want to earn a degree that combines fire science with management—not
a problem. Or, let's say you want a learning experience that focuses on marketing
techniques as well as graphic design—you can make it happen at LTC.
As an ITS student, you'll work with an occupational mentor of your choosing,
an educational advisor, a program counselor, and college faculty to design an
academically sound, student- and industry-specific program that incorporates
your appropriate prior learning experiences—things like traditional classes
and knowledge learned on the job.
