Career and Technical Education (CTE) dual enrollment gives high school students the opportunity to earn college credit in the career field of their choice! Students can take classes in subjects such as medical terminology, welding, programming, robotics, and cyber security. These courses not only allow students to earn college credit while in high school, but also to explore potential career pathways for the future! High school students in dual enrollment programs are afforded the same educational and support services as all other students.
Students enrolled in CTE Dual Enrollment must have approval from their high school CTE principal or counselor to participate. Classes are offered at the high school, a Northeast State campus, or online.

Grades and Transferability
All courses employ the Northeast State grading scale. Most institutions receiving transfer credit require that the student earn at least a "C" average on college-level work to be transferred. Although Northeast State students have successfully transferred to numerous colleges and universities, it is the responsibility of students who are not planning to attend Northeast State after high school to contact the colleges of their choice to ensure transferability of coursework. All grades earned will become a permanent part of the student's academic record at Northeast State.
