“Dual credit classes are a great way to take one class and get credit for both high school and college.

I also appreciate the greater accountability that comes with taking college courses.” - Laura Suggs

“My dual credit college courses are bringing me closer to my goal of an associate degree in automotive technology. By the time I finish high school, I’ll already have my one-year certificate. The course I’m taking right now is self-paced. I do the work at home and send it in through email. I like the flexibility and working on my own.” - Efrain Badillo Jr.
