The Dual Credit Education roadmap is a sequence of courses for students interested in working in the education field. Students progressing through this sequence of courses will learn about topics such as the historical background on the U.S. educational system, relationships between school, family, and the community, and developmental characteristics of learners at all grade levels. Students completing the full sequence will earn 10 university credits towards an Idaho State University education degree.

This course sequence is supported by a partnership between IDLA and Idaho State University. Courses are articulated for dual credit, enabling students to earn both high school and university credit through the same course. Information about course registration and use of Fast Forward funds available through the State Department of Education can be found on the Advanced Opportunities page.

The Advanced Placement Computer Science Roadmap is for those students interested in the broader field of Computer Science. Students following this roadmap will learn about the various aspects of computer science. They will also have the opportunity to qualify for college credit, based on their Advanced Placement (AP) Exam score for AP Computer Science Principles and AP Computer Science.

Students enrolled in each course will have the opportunity to complete the AP Exam for the course in the spring. Students should work with the counselor at their home high school to request the exam and take the exam on each designated day in the spring. For more information about the AP Exam, please see the College Board website: https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/  Additionally, students can request the use of Fast Forward funds to cover the cost of the AP Exam.

The Dual Credit (DC) Web Development Roadmap is for those students interested in organizational web design, development, and management. Students following this roadmap will have the opportunity to complete two courses that articulate into the AAS Web Design & Development and BAS Web Design & Development degree programs at Lewis-Clark State College. Students choosing to continue on this roadmap after high school would be able to complete the AAS degree program through LCSC entirely online, on campus, or through a mix of the two.  

Students enrolled in DC Web Development I and DC Web Development II will also need to enroll as a dual credit student through Lewis-Clark State College in order to earn the university credit.
