- VEPP Students have the option of participating in our general education program or the Individual Student Alternative Education Plan program (ISAEP). Both educational programs take place during the academic hours (8 a.m. – 1 p.m.)
- VEPP students are required to participate in our Career Readiness course that focuses on the following phases: Personal Awareness, Personal Motivation, Skill Development, Employment Placement, Employment Retention and Employment Advancement.
- VEPP students will be transported to F.I.R.S.T. Contractors in the afternoon where they will participate in the hands-on component of the Career Readiness Program.
