Advanced Opportunities
Get ready for the future beyond high school.
IDLA helps students prepare for life after high school, whether that involves college or starting a career. Our options for middle and high school students include unique electives, advanced placement (AP), Dual Credit (DC), and IDLA Program Pathways. IDLA Program Pathways lead students to industry certificates or a full associate’s degree program at an Idaho college or university. Dual Credit courses and advanced placement courses are both approved by participating community colleges, colleges, and universities, and these advanced opportunities allow students to earn high school credits and undergraduate credits simultaneously.
Dual Credit Registration
To receive college credit from a Dual Credit course, students must register with both IDLA and the college or university offering the credit.
Advanced Placement Classes
IDLA offers online Advanced Placement (AP) courses with college-level curricula, taught by IDLA teachers, which allow high school students to earn college credit.
