Accelerated Summer Courses

Registration

1. Durham Catholic District School Board (DCDSB) students - contact your school's guidance office to obtain a summer school registration form.
2. Non-DCDSB students  - Current secondary school students who are not registered in a DCDSB school must see their Guidance Counsellor for approval and registration through PRISM.
3. Adult students - email credit.reg@dcdsb.ca with your first and last name and course request.  If you are not a current student at Archbishop Anthony Meagher CCEC, you must attach a transcript or credit history to enrol.

Accelerated courses are for students who are currently in Grade 9 to Grade 12.  If you are a Grade 8 student and will be attending a DCDSB secondary school in the fall, check out our Grade 8 Reach Ahead Credit offerings.

Continuing Education reserves the right to cancel classes or programs if minimum enrolment is not met, and to close classes when full. 

Accelerated Courses

• There are no activity fees for summer courses.
• Students may register for one accelerated course only.  If a student is registered in an accelerated course in the summer, they cannot take another program in July (for example, they cannot take a credit recovery course and accelerated course).
• Students are expected to attend on a daily basis and meet all deadlines.

Accelerated E-Learning Courses

• Students are required to provide a current email address.
• Students may register for one accelerated course only.
• Students must be in Canada for duration of course as VPN will not be supported for those outside the country.
• Students must be available to write a final virtual exam on Thursday, July 24 from 9:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.  A web camera is required.  The Civics and Careers (CHV2O/GLC2O) classes will not have a final exam.
