Who Are We?Texas OnCourse empowers you—pre-K through grade 12 students, parents, teachers, and counselors—to make decisions that will help you, your child or your students succeed after high school. It is the result of three Texas government agencies pooling our resources, with the help of UT Austin, in one easy-to-navigate site.
In today’s world, professional success almost always means earning some kind of credential beyond a high school diploma, such as a certificate, an associate’s degree, bachelor’s degree, maybe even a master’s or a doctorate.
Depending on your career of choice, you may need several years of education or training after high school. Training may be on the job, in the classroom or some combination. Costs can vary widely, as can your pay options, so it is important to make informed decisions.
What’s right for you, your child or your student?
We are the Texas Education Agency (TEA), the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB), and the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC). Our collaboration, powered by UT Austin, Texas OnCourse, is here to help you figure it out—at no cost to you.
