(4-10) To be eligible for career and technology contact hours, each student enrolled in Agricultural Science and Technology must accumulate at least 110 Supervised Agricultural Experience Program (SAEP) hours per semester. The 110 hours can be obtained through an approved Supervised Agricultural Experience Program (SAEP) and completion of the course. Upon completion of the course, the student may obtain 75 of the 110 hours. The remaining 35 hours may be obtained by the student completing suggested activities for outside classroom hours, or a combination of outside classroom hours and SAEP. SAEP records must be on file to document each student's successful completion of this requirement.

Each student may fulfill the 110-hour (minimum total) requirement by obtaining:

75 hours maximum by completing the course, and

35 hours minimum outside of class time activities.
