Student Guide

Training at the college is learner-centered, or in other words, competency-based. This enables students to advance in their program as they master their skills. Competency is determined using work completed by the student throughout the entire course. At the completion of each course, students receive a grade* to communicate their accomplishments that is in accordance with industry, employer, and certification standards.

Competency-based programs will assign completed courses a grade.

For more information about course grades, please visit with a program instructor or department head, or refer to the college's policy 615, Grading. Also see policy 616, Academic Progress, which is used to measure student academic progress.

*Historical courses utilize either a final grade (A-F) or final rating (4-0).
