Individual Training Plan (ITP)

For every semester you are enrolled, it is required for you to meet with a counselor to prepare your ITP. 

  • This plan lists the approved courses per your educational objective and the hours for classes, labs, and study time. 
  • The ITP is required by the County of San Diego.  It is the authorizing document for you to receive Welfare-to-Work activity hours, required books and materials, childcare, transportation, and other supportive services. 
  • There must be an employable major and/or educational goal listed. 

 

Call the office at 619-660-4340 or stop by the office G-300 and a staff member will help you schedule the appointment.  Or you can send us an email at cuyamaca.calworks@gcccd.edu. 

 

Comprehensive Education Plan (CEP)

Comprehensive Education Plans are done to provide a road map to help you get to your educational goal.  It will show the classes that you need to take to complete an associate degree, certificate, or transfer to a university for a bachelor's degree. 

  • A CEP is highly recommended for each student.  You will meet with a counselor to work on this together. 
  • If your educational goal changes, you'll need to get a new CEP.  You will be contacted when it is time to do a first or an updated plan to schedule a counseling appointment.  An exempt student cannot receive supportive services unless there is a CEP on file.

 

Student Supplies 

Students can stop our office the beginning of each semester to receive supplies once they have completed their ITP with their counselor. No appointment is needed.
