An unusual program offered is the Apprenticeship Training Program. The college works hand-in-hand with businesses in the community to provide career training in more than 900 different occupations. Students participate in a combination of on-the-job training and classroom work to earn a certificate and become registered as a journeyman in their field of study. CCC&TI works with local businesses to develop a program that teaches the specific skills and competencies desired in the given profession. Skills such as leadership skills, time management, problem solving, customer service skills and workplace skills are common areas of concentration. Businesses can work with the school to develop unique programs designed specifically for them.
The school is open to all students who satisfy the admission requirements, and the application process is fairly straightforward. The college accepts applications on a rolling basis which means that students may apply right up until classes start or until the program of choice is full. Prospective students must submit a completed application form as well as official high school and any prior college transcripts. Certain classes may require placement tests to determine whether prerequisite courses in math, English or writing are necessary. Additionally, all prospective students must have an interview with a member of the school
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) which is available online beginning in January, must be completed to determine financial aid eligibility. The school provides assistance in obtaining financial aid, including federal, state, local, and institutional aid. These include need-based and merit-based scholarships, grants, federally-subsidized loans and work-study programs.
Prospective students may complete a financial aid form in addition to the FAFSA and submit it to the school to be considered for additional aid. It is recommended that the student submit this form at least three months before classes begin in order to allow sufficient time for a financial aid packet to be developed. Students should complete the FAFSA as soon as possible because many scholarships are awarded to a limited number of people on a first-come, first-served basis.
