The
College
and
Career
Preparation
programme
(CCP)
offers
a
valuable
-
and
tuition-free
-
service.
Students
can
finish
their
high
school
education,
upgrade
their
marks,
or
complete
prerequisites
they
need
for
other
programmes.
Students
can
take
one
class
or
a
full
course
load,
depending
on
their
needs.
Last
year,
38
CNC
students
in
the
programme
were
awarded
completion
certificates.
CCP
offers
single
courses
as
well
as
four
certificate
programmes:
Fundamental,
Intermediate,
Advanced
(equivalent
to
grade
11),
and
the
BC
Adult
Graduation
Diploma
(equivalent
to
grade
12).
Applicants
must
be
18
years
or
older
and
need
to
take
a
placement
test
to
determine
the
right
level
to
begin
their
studies.
Alex
Castley
heard
about
CCP
when
he
spoke
with
a
counselor
about
applying
to
a
trades
programme.
He
had
graduated
from
high
school
a
year
before,
but
discovered
he
did
not
have
the
prerequisites
to
be
accepted
into
the
Entry
Level
Electrical
programme.
He
decided
to
start
by
redoing
two
courses
to
bring
his
marks
up.
Since
Castley
works,
he
chose
to
take
his
classes
this
semester
and
in
January,
he
will
take
grade
12
math
and
physics.
He
enjoys
the
class
format,
"I
love
it.
The
classes
are
like
high
school,
but
it's
taught
better.
You're
given
a
lesson
in
class,
then
you
do
the
work
on
your
own
outside
class
time."
He
appreciates
that
there
is
no
tuition.
Other
than
books,
he
only
had
to
pay
the
registration
and
student
fees
that
everyone
is
charged.
"It's
a
great
opportunity;
it
really
makes
it
affordable
for
people
to
get
back
into
school."
