College Credit Plus FAQs for CTE & CCP

College Credit Plus FAQs for CTE & CCP www.ohiohighered.org/ccp

FAQs for CTE & CCP Question: How is a CCP CTE course reported in EMIS?

FAQs for CTE & CCP Answer: A CCP CTE course is reported in the following way: Curriculum Code (CN310) - PS Location IRN (CN110) - IRN of the college granting credit Delivery Method (CN320) – CP if District is using their own resources and wants to receive CTE funding

FAQs for CTE & CCP Question: Does a secondary school receive funding from College Credit Plus (CCP) and career-technical education (CTE) funding?

FAQs for CTE & CCP Answer: Funding for CCP courses flows to the college partner and is deducted from the district’s foundation funding. The district does not receive any funds for CCP courses. CTE Funding for a CTE CCP course flows the same way as all other CTE funds flow.

FAQs for CTE & CCP Answer (continued): If the JVSD offers the course 100% of the time, they report the course and pay for the CCP course. If both schools report the course, responsibility for the deduction is determined by the ratio of percentage of time for each school. The deduction is split by the ratio of percentage of time.

FAQs for CTE & CCP Question: Can a district offer a course that includes College Credit Plus students as well as students taking the course who are not dually enrolled at the college?

FAQs for CTE & CCP Answer: Yes, as long as it is the college course that is taught. All students in the class must follow the same course syllabus, use the same textbook and be assessed using the same methods as the college course delivered on the college campus.

FAQs for CTE & CCP Answer (continued): Students not enrolled in college but who are taking the college course, along with their parents, must be notified the student is not earning college credit and would likely be required to retake the course upon enrolling in college in the future, if so desired (Ohio Administrative Code 3333-1-65.2).

FAQs for CTE & CCP Question: If a student participates in a College Credit Plus course in place of a secondary course that requires student organization (CTSO) activities or other activities in addition to the college course, can the student receive two different grades – one for their high school transcript and one for their college transcript?

FAQs for CTE & CCP Answer: No. The student participates in the college course and completes to the college course syllabi, learning outcomes and assessment requirements. Additional secondary requirements related to the student’s career field pathway must be completed within another secondary course.

FAQs for CTE & CCP Question: Can career-technical student organizations (CTSO) courses integrate its activities?

FAQs for CTE & CCP Answer: If the CTSO activities are an integral part of the instruction and used as an instructional strategy to teach the college standards, they can be used. If they are ancillary to the course, they cannot be used as an instructional method for subject matter outside the college content, and students cannot receive a grade for the CTSO activities.

FAQs for CTE & CCP Question: Do courses offered for bilateral or statewide articulated credit fall under the same requirements as College Credit Plus (e.g. teacher credentials, transcripted credits, dual enrollment admissions requirements)?

FAQs for CTE & CCP Answer: No. Articulated credit options are separate from College Credit Plus rules and requirements. The course taught at the high school level is the secondary course, not the college course. The student receives the credit after graduating high school and upon enrollment into an approved college.
