Learn and Earn Online - Online Learning for High School Students

Qualified students in participating high schools can now take a variety of onlineVGCC courses at no cost to them or their families.

VGCC is proud to be part of Learn & Earn Online, an initiative created by Gov. Mike Easley and the North Carolina General Assembly in 2007.

Students may take VGCC's Learn & Earn Online classes online at their school, as part of their regular school day. Courses are taught by VGCC faculty, and when students successfully complete an online course, they will earn college credit and potentially high school credit as well. The college credit will transfer to VGCC and other community colleges, as well as most four-year universities, depending on the specific course.

Public high school students at all grade levels are eligible to take Learn & Earn Online courses; however, college requirements and prerequisites for courses will apply.

High school students should talk with their school guidance counselors about how to participate in Learn & Earn Online.
