Concurrent Enrollment

Concurrent Enrollment classes allow high school students to earn both high school and college credit simultaneously by taking college-level courses. These courses play a vital role in Career and Technical Education by giving students early access to industry-relevant skills, certifications, and academic pathways. Through concurrent enrollment, students can explore career fields, reduce the time and cost of postsecondary education, and gain a competitive edge in the workforce.
