What is CCP?

Career & College Promise (“CCP”) is North Carolina’s dual enrollment program for high school students. This program allows eligible NC high school students to enroll in college classes at North Carolina community colleges and universities through their high school.

In many cases, students can also earn dual credit - meeting high school graduation requirements with college courses.

Career & College Promise offers students the option to choose from these pathways:

  • College Transfer - Designed for students planning to continue their educational career beyond high school to eventually achieve an Associate's or Bachelor's degree at a community college or university.
  • Career & Technical Education - Allows students to begin a certification or diploma program in a particular technical field or career area.

Career & College Promise offers North Carolina high students options to pursue educational and career goals of their choice using a rigorous yet supportive structure designed to help them become successful.
