Program Summary
This is a restricted entry program. Students must first be accepted as an apprentice with the Illinois Laborers’ and Contractors’ Joint Apprenticeship and Training Program (ILCJATP). All LBR-prefix courses are taken with the union according to the apprenticeship cycle. All other courses are taken with SCC. SCC has an articulation agreement with SIU-C for the Bachelors in Technical Resource Management.
Interested students should seek advisement.
NOTE: The Business (BUS) courses are to be taken in this sequence for successful completion of this program. Students will take all of the LBR courses with the ILCJATP. Any 30 hours of that coursework will count toward the degree.
