College-delivered dual credits (Dual Credit Policy p.7) Students take a college course or Level 1 apprenticeship (OYAP) program delivered at the college. Credit is recorded on the college record using college course codes Credit is also recorded on the OST using a special dual credit course code assigned by the Ministry of Education.
College-delivered dual credits (Dual Credit Policy p. 8) • Maximum of 4 can count as optional credits towards the OSSD • Cannot be used as substitution for compulsory courses. • External music credits are included in the 4 credit maximum
College-delivered dual credits If a student earns more than 4, only 4 will show on the OST; all will show on the provincial report card. The process is outlined on page 12 of the OST manual

The same code may be used by more than one college. The passing grade may vary
College-delivered dual credits (Dual Credit Policy p. 15) (Dual Credit Policy p. 19) For college courses, selecting the correct code will ensure that the name of the college, the college course title and the college course code appear correctly on the OST.

OST Showing College-delivered College Course The passing grade for AEF4T at Conestoga is 55%. Since the student did not achieve that grade, he does not receive a credit, even though his mark is above 50%.
Setting up a Dual Credit College-Delivered College Course When the course is added, a check is done to see if more than one description exists for the course code. If it does, then a box appears to the right of the course code. The user can open the drop down list and select whichever course description is valid.
A Dual Credit Class with a Teacher Assigned
Check for Accuracy Create a test transcript. Make sure that the correct college name appears for college-delivered dual credit courses (XXX4T) Note that for Level 1 Apprenticeship courses, no college name appears. (XXX4Y) For partial completion of Level 1 OYAP Apprenticeship dual credits, the word “partial” appears with the title of the course. For team-taught dual credits, “dual credit” appears along with the title of the course
Reporting to OnSIS Through “class enrolment” Through “other credits”
Reporting to OnSIS through “Class Enrolment” College-delivered dual credit classes can be created without an educator if necessary Ensures consistency of report card, OST, transmission to OCAS and OUAC Allows tracking of credits earned vs credits attempted Courses count towards student’s FTE
Reporting to OnSIS through “Other Credits” Courses could be missed in transmissions to OCAS Doesn’t generate dual credit teacher funding through the GSN
Reporting to OnSIS through “Other Credits” • “Final Mark” field must be entered • “Attempted Credit” and “Earned Credit” fields in the Course tab must be verified to make sure that the correct value is entered.
