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. Discuss all options….students coming to the college, college classes during the school day, college classes outside of the school day. Sometimes students are enrolled in a high school course in the HS SIS and other times they are not. The full text of AB288 has been included for you.
