Career & College Promise (Free College Credits while in High School)

Career & College Promise (CCP)

See Durham Tech's page for more information about the opportunities juniors and seniors have to earn free college credits while in high school.  There are two main options available via CCP:

  1. Career and Technical Education
    • Earn credits toward a CTE certification or diploma
    • Students concurrently take high school courses at PAHS and college courses at Durham Tech.
  2. College Transfer
    • Earn transferable* college credit toward a 2- or 4-yr degree.
    • Students concurrently take high school courses at PAHS and college courses at Durham Tech.

*UNC-System 4-yr schools have an articulation agreement for the transfer of credits between NC 2-yr and 4-yr schools.  Non-UNC-System 4-yr colleges may not award all credits from a 2-yr school, although often credits are transfered in as general elective credits, even if the 2-yr course is not fully recognized toward a more-specific major or graduation requirement.
