College of New Caledonia and Cedars Christian School have signed a dual credit agreement to offer high school students the opportunity to earn credits towards both their high school diploma and a future postsecondary credential. Grade 11 and 12 students will have access to a range of tuition-free first-year college courses and will receive on-campus supports. “The idea behind CNC’s dual credit programs is that high school students get to experience post-secondary learning in the comfort of their own communities, and hopefully will want to stay in the north for study and work,” said CNC President Cindy Heitman. “It’s fantastic to partner with schools in the region that we serve and provide an accessible transition for students into the post-secondary world.
