Elizabethtown Community and Technical College will host six dual credit informational events throughout September for current and future dual credit students and parents.

“Dual Credit Nights are an opportunity for parents and students to learn all aspects of dual credit at ECTC, from the classes offered, to billing and scholarships, to the ECTC resources available to dual credit students,” said Chrissie Angell, dual credit coordinator at ECTC.

Each Dual Credit Night will host one school district. Students must register in advance and provide the number of parents/guardians attending with them. A light meal will be provided. Space is limited, so be sure to register as soon as possible.
