Additional details on specific 
responsibilities (e.g., adhere to
ministry policies, support well-being and achievement

Difference in policies and protocols related to criminal
reference checks, transportation and emergency procedures
and processes.
Reference to Creating Pathways to Success,

in the English-language system may be allowed to enrol in

to the start of the course. 
Policy Updates

Clarification in 3.3,  Cont’d:
Please keep the following in mind as you implement:
Ultimate goal 
- that the best option for the student’s
secondary success and smooth transition to PSE studies
be chosen, according to their pathways planning.
The 
Individual Pathways Plan (IPP)
 is key to the
student’s planning process.
Situation to avoid -
 
student completes the Dual Credit
course successfully and cannot have it shown on their
report card and transcript as the requirements have not
been followed.

Whiteboard Question 2

What are your biggest course code challenges regarding
your Dual Credit course code requests?
College-delivered courses: 
College courses or Level 1
apprenticeship programs delivered by a college professor
or instructor.
 Credit is 
recorded on the college record
using college course codes, and also 
on the Ontario
Student Transcript (OST), using a special Dual Credit
course code
 (e.g., TMH4T Fanshawe C: Equipment
Maintenance MOPT-1001) assigned by the Ministry of
Education.

Two Broad Categories of Dual Credit Courses,

Dual Credit 
Policy (p. 7)
17
Team-taught courses
: Courses in which college or
apprenticeship course content is taught by a college professor
or instructor and closely matched secondary course content is
taught by a secondary school teacher. Students are eligible to
receive credit for the college course, which is recorded on the
college record, and for the secondary school course, which is
recorded on the OST. 
The code for the secondary school course
(not the college course) is recorded on the OST
 (e.g., TTJ4C,
Transportation Technology), followed by the term “Dual Credit”
in parentheses.

Level 1 
Apprenticeship Dual Credit programs must provide
students the opportunity to complete the entire Level 1, with the
following exceptions:
CYW, CDP, EA, and DSW.
These four are 
modular
 Dual Credit Level 1 courses.
In the OST, the word “modules” will appear in brackets after the
name of each of these four trades.
Why? Because “partial” was already taken--for partial
success in a Dual Credit.

Is the course code I’m requesting for this new Dual Credit

the same college
? (If so, it cannot be used.)

Has the Dual Credit course code I’m requesting 
never
been used before for a Dual Credit course? If this is the
case, before submitting my request to the ministry, have I
checked to see if another suitable Dual Credit course code
can be found that’s already in use for a similar college
course 
of another college
 to request instead? (We don’t
want to run out of Dual Credit course codes!)
