Dual credit programming is designed to support high school students in career exploration and experiences. This helps prepare them for career selection and post-secondary education readiness while they are still within the support structures of high school.
Dual credit programming in Alberta is monitored by the Alberta Education Ministry who oversees all kindergarten to grade 12 programming. Alberta Education leads the design and organization of dual credit programs with individual school authorities deciding the level of dual credit programs they wish to provide to their high school students.
Olds College partners with school authorities who wish to access Olds College dual credit offerings. A formal partnership between Olds College and the school authorities must be in place — and approved by Alberta Education — for any student to be enrolled in a dual credit course. Course offerings and student selection are the full responsibility of the school authorities who are required to pay for student tuition of all dual credit courses. Olds College does not have a role in student selection for dual credit programming.
Olds College is proud to partner with many school authorities and provide high quality dual credit learning for Alberta students. Olds College has many single dual credit courses offered each year and full certification in programs sought by school authorities. Our goal is to provide high school students with dual credit learning that assists them in their future career aspirations and post-secondary education success.
To apply for an Olds College dual credit course, please contact your school authority to understand its particular requirements and student selection process. Olds College can only work directly with partnered school authorities and their key contacts for student enrolment.
