Regional Occupational Programs (ROP) are part of the California public school system. The purpose of ROP is to provide students with marketable job skills upon completion of the program. All programs are based on job market needs.

ROP offers practical hands-on training in a lab setting or in a local business. The programs will help students to obtain entry-level job skills, upgrade existing skills, or to prepare for advanced training. ROP programs teach interviewing techniques and how to locate and retain a job.

ROP provides high quality, state-of-the-art workforce preparation to high school students (age 16 and over) and adults. High school student (16 or over) should register through their school counselor. Adult students should call the ROP office at 530-621-0123.

Transportation to ROP classes and community job-sites must be provided/arranged by the student.
