Special Notes About Curriculum Programs

Criminal Background Checks
Students should contact their advisors for updates to program offerings. Students admitted to programs that require a clinical or co-op component may be required to provide the college with an official criminal background check in order to meet the requirements of the clinical or co-op site. Convictions for certain crimes and/or evidence of drug use may disqualify students for participating in clinical or co-op experiences, which would limit their progress toward graduation.

Length of Programs
The length of Wake Tech programs is set by the North Carolina Community College System and published in the NCCCS Curriculum Procedures Reference Manual. All Wake Tech degree, diploma, and certificate programs are of the same quality and rigor and meet the same standards for student achievement regardless of the mode of instruction or location (traditional-seated, online, or hybrid). Website: http://curred.waketech.edu/.

Professional Licensure
Currently, Wake Technical Community College does not offer an online program that leads to professional licensure. The College's licensure and certification programs are either tied to the State of North Carolina or are national certifications. Students seeking to complete licensure or certification programs within Wake Technical Community College and planning to move to another state will need to contact that specific state licensure board to learn how to obtain a license or certification in that particular state.

Also, you will need to contact the degree program administrator within Wake Technical Community College (www.waketech.edu) (919-866-5000) directly, prior to enrolling in the course or degree program.
