Dual Enrollment AB288 (The College and Career Access Pathways Act) was enacted January 1, 2016. For the first time in California’s Education Code, the term “dual enrollment” is identified to define “special part-time” or “special full-time” students – that is, high school or other eligible special admit students enrolling in community college credit courses. The term “concurrent enrollment” is not found in CA Ed Code.
CCAP/Non-CCAP • CCAP is an option, not a mandate • Dual enrollment existed prior to AB288 and can continue • Which is right for my school?

Who teaches a DE class? • Minimum Qualifications • Communication with faculty • Contract Considerations (CC & K-12)
Who can take a DE class? • EC 48800(a) – K-12 school district is responsible for determining whether a pupil is prepared to undertake college coursework. • Partners must work together to ensure that K-12 staff are familiar with course offerings. • Summer session restrictions: 5% - non-CCAP • College Bridge Form example: https://www.cerritos.edu/uploads/AdmissionsandRecords/pdf/Concurrent_Enrollment_Form.pdf
How does credit work? • Credit toward high school graduation • A-g completion • Remediation and Acceleration
Does it cost students money? • Enrollment fees are waived (CCAP and non-CCAP) • Health/Activities Fees • Textbooks
Considerations • Calendar differences • Curriculum differences (ex: integrated vs traditional) • Length of course – total time and compensation • “Do no harm” • Credit recovery and graduation implications • Multiple Measures/Placement • Fees • High school courses must not displace or reduce access for adults at the college
Logistics • Recruitment • Channels of Communication • Clerical/Administrative support at the high school • District vs. School Site
