Academic and Career Pathway Courses Online

Academic and Career Pathway courses allow juniors and seniors to take college courses while still in high school. Students may earn high school and college credit at the same time. These courses are known as dual credit or concurrent enrollment. Tuition assistance may also be available. For more information, check with your school counselor.

Students have the opportunity to take a sequence of courses leading to a college certificate, diploma, and degree. High school students commonly select from the Career Pathway courses listed below. Academic courses are also available online.

College courses are offered in a variety of formats: online, televised, lecture, lab or a combination. Students may participate at the high school with an approved instructor or at CCC campuses or centers.
