New this January, Fidelity Investments and NCC are set to launch a noncredit training pathway for careers in finance. The training combines an optional 2-week Financial Service Essentials course that lays a foundation for customer-facing careers in finance, and a 16-week Security Investment Exam Preparation (SIEP) course. Both sessions are part-time, evening courses. All students who complete the program are offered an interview with Fidelity. See more details online.

Opportunities for Current High School Students

At Open House, find out how high school students can earn college credit for a fraction of the regular tuition cost with Dual Enrollment programs Running Start, Early College, and eStart. Students can take classes for both college and high school credit, pending approval from the student’s high school.

High school students can use the Governor’s Scholarship to earn college credits for free. This includes STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) classes like statistics, physics, and accounting; and CTE (Career and Technical Education) courses like graphic design, automotive, and criminal justice.

Dual Enrollment students are able to graduate high school with highly transferable college credits, saving thousands in tuition costs. Contact Dual Enrollment Coordinator Michelle Grimm at 603.578.6915 or mgrimm@ccsnh.edu.

New Transfer Pathway

NCC graduates can now continue seamlessly into a Bachelor of Business or Bachelor of Science in Computing at Dorset College in Dublin, Ireland.
