Abstract	In this article, the author presents a model of the career academy concept. The author states that in New York's Putnam and Northern Westchester counties, the eight career academies of the Tech Center at Yorktown are not only providing hands-on programs that teach job-related skills, but a team of evaluators from the Association for Career and Technical Education (ACTE) describes the eight academies of the Putnam/Northern Westchester Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) as "a model for curriculum integration." The curriculum integration is threefold: integration between career and technical with academics, intra-curriculum integration within the different pathways of the academy, and inter-curriculum integration between the academies. Furthermore, in this article, the author describes each academy. (ERIC).
