Ohio’s College Credit Plus (CCP) program can help you earn college and high school credits at the same time by taking college courses while you are a student at Butler Tech. Taking a college course from a public college or university is free with the College Credit Plus program.
Butler Tech has partnered with Cincinnati State, Hocking College, Miami University, Sinclair Community College, and Southern State for this program. However, you can also take courses at other Ohio colleges and universities that participate in the College Credit Plus program.
All students interested in participating in College Credit Plus must first watch the College Credit Plus (CCP) Annual Information Session video.
After viewing the video, students must complete the Intent to Participate Form to formally express their interest in enrolling in CCP courses.
Butler Tech school counselors will follow up with students who submit the Intent to Participate Form or request additional information.
