  1. DUAL CREDIT PROGRAM 2009/2010 Pilot

  2. Dual-Credit Objectives • Develop a model that is highly coordinated and can be duplicated • Create access for high school students participating post-secondary education opportunities (academic & career) • Improve college credit rates for high school students • Reduce college costs for students and families • Reduce the length time it takes for students to obtain their educational and/or career goals • Encourage the expansion of dual-credit programs

  3. Dual Credit Planning Components

  4. Funding: California Dual Enrollment Legislation Senate Bill 292 (1996): School districts can claim full ADA for dually enrolled students as long as they are enrolled in and attend high school for 240 minutes a day. They can claim three-quarters ADA for dually enrolled 11th- and 12th-grade students who attend high school for 180 minutes or the appropriate percentage of ADA for the number of minutes between 240 and 180, inclusive. Senate Bill 338 (2003): The governing board of a school district may determine which students might benefit from “advanced scholastic or vocational work”. To participate, students must obtain principal’s recommendation and parental consent. Community colleges may restrict admission base on age, grade level or multiple assessments. In order for a college to claim full-time equivalent status, the class must be open and advertised to the general public. Summer dual enrollment is limited to 5 percent of each grade at any high school. Senate Bill 70 (2005): Funding is provided to improve workforce development efforts by strengthening career and technical education pathways between high schools and community colleges. Senate Bill 1303 (2006): Students enrolled in lower division transfer courses, for-credit occupational courses and California High School Exit Exam preparatory courses are exempt from the 5 percent summer session cap. CA ED CODE: 76300 (f) The governing board of a community college district may exempt special part-time students admitted, pursuant to Section 76001, from the fee requirement.
