Duel Credit Program Funding


The provincial government is putting almost $1.3 million into a college and high school program.

The Duel Credit program allows area students to get college credits while still in high school.

Confederation College President Pat Lang says it helps students find the right course.

"This gives students an opportunity to study both at college and in their high school years to study college-level credits to understand what those opportunities are all about," says Lang.

The provincial money will fund the program for the upcoming school year.
