Ryan Wendel, Xavier High School, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, discusses the Computer Programming Career Edge Academy at Kirkwood Community College. You can find out more about this academy at http://www.kirkwood.edu/site/index.php?p=12727
Career Edge Academies are career-focused, college credit courses for high school students, available through Kirkwood Community College provided at no cost to students or parents. This program is funded by your school district. Targeted towards high school juniors and seniors, Career Edge Academies offer a hands-on way for young students to explore careers and experience college-level classes. Students earn dual credit, which means the classes not only fulfill their high school graduation requirements, they also count toward a future college degree. And, the credits transfer; students can choose to attend Kirkwood after high school, or another college. Because individual school districts pay for the classes, they are offered at no charge to students or their families. Learn more at http://www.kirkwood.edu/careeracademies
