MASSP Webinars

The Michigan State Legislature passed the Postsecondary Enrollment Options Act (1996 PA 160) and the Career and Technical Preparation Act (2000 PA 258) also known as the "Dual Enrollment" Bills. These Bills modify and expand on provisions of the State School Aid Act providing for students to earn college credit while in high school. The Bills also require that the Board of a School District or Public School Academy (PSA) ensure that each student in eighth grade or higher be given information about college course-taking opportunities. The classes that students are eligible for must not be offered by the high school or PSA and must lead toward postsecondary credit, accreditation, certification, and/or licensing.

Jeff McNeal, Educational Consultant at the Michigan Department of Education, will explain the legislative reporting requirements around sharing information with students about their college course-taking opportunities and related letters that are required. Jeff will also share some trends in statewide data around dual enrollment and address questions from participants in the webinar and frequently asked questions from the field. to cover in upcoming event presentations and webinars.

Guest HS Principals will join us and talk about their approach to and impact of dual enrollment, including participation numbers, impact on test scores, mitigation of teacher shortage and course offerings, and how students/parents have responded to these expanded learning opportunities.
