Carteret CC’s Career & College Promise (CCP) program allows eligible high school students to earn free college credit—often as dual credit that counts toward both high school and college. With access to over 30 academic pathways, students can save on tuition, reduce their future college course load, and gain valuable experience with college-level coursework. Whether aiming for a degree or entering the workforce, CCP offers a head start with career training, skills, and certifications.
