Cross Enrolment Any students who begin any career related programming after the Sept 1701 funding cutoff are cross enrolled by Westshore through CE or DL so that ministry course funding is collected. ‘Dual credit’ In many dual credit career courses and programs, students receive high school graduation credits and post secondary credits. The district receives funding for both the post secondary and ministry/BAA courses– 2 for 1 funding. ‘X’ Block Many career courses and programs (eg: Work Experience and SSA) run outside the normal timetable and are generally on top of a student’s full course load which means these students are ministry funded more than 1.0 Career Development: FACTS
