We advise CTE dual enrollment students in the shortest credential options within an AAS degree. We do this because they are the shortest credit hour options and allow students the greatest chance of completing a credential before they graduate high school. All courses in the short certificate and advanced certificate options are counted towards an AAS degree within the Career Program.
Special Details for Dual Enrollment Students in a Manufacturing Career Program:
All manufacturing options must be taken on-campus. Courses are offered at the Jefferson, Shelby-Hoover and St. Clair-Pell City campuses.
We recommend welding students contact Jeff Wiley [email protected] for advising at the Jefferson campus and James Scott [email protected] for advising at the Shelby-Hoover campus. Students in other program options should contact Don Wilcher at [email protected] for advising.
Academic Course Pairing Option: English (ENG 101 only) can be covered under the CTE scholarship. For scholarship coverage, students must take ENG 101 and a CTE course in the same semester.
