Continuing Education - Coordinating Board-approved higher education technical courses offered for continuing education units (non-credit) and conducted in a competency-based format. These courses provide a quick and flexible response to business, industry, and student needs for intensive preparatory, supplemental, or upgrade training and education and have specific occupational and/or apprenticeship training objectives. Related courses can be grouped together in a program that will result in a college certificate and/or a state/national license or certification. Continuing Education courses are also often designed for leisure-learning opportunities.
Corporate Training - Customized training designed to improve a organization's performance. Business needs are assessed, growth opportunities are provided, and quality training is delivered in an effective, timely, and convenient manner regardless of whether the organization is large or small. Skills Development Fund grants and various types of government grants are all available to assist companies in financing these training courses.
Dual Credit - Process by which a high school junior or senior enrolls in a college course and receives simultaneous academic credit for the course from both the college and the high school. While dual credit courses are often taught on the secondary school campus to high school students only, a high school student can also take a course on the college campus and receive both high school and college credit. Dual credit courses must be approved by the affected high school and include both academic courses as well as technical courses. These courses are stepping stones from high school to college, serving as a path to academic degree programs or college-level workforce education courses.
Concurrent Enrollment - When a student is registered at more than one educational institution (including high school and college) but is not enrolled in courses typically defined as Dual Credit.
Dual/Joint Admission - Students may apply to one of Hill College's university partners while still pursuing an associate degree as a student attending Hill College. Joint Admission status connects a student to a participating university partner early in his/her educational career and allows a student to be both a Hill College student and a university student. This program also offers advising to ensure proper course transferability and Includes both Undergraduate and Graduate degree offerings by our university partners at the Hill College Johnson County Campus in Cleburne.
