�THE COLLEGE
GENERAL INFORMATION
Fayetteville Technical Community College, as a comprehensive community college, adheres
to an “Open Door” admissions policy. High school graduates, persons achieving a North Carolina equivalency certificate (GED), and adults who show potential for post high school education may be admitted to courses which are appropriate to their educational potential. Successful
implementation of an “Open Door” admissions policy requires an emphasis on admissions
counseling services. As part of the admissions counseling process, Fayetteville Technical Community College utilizes an initial placement assessment and an evaluation of the applicant’s
prior school record to determine potential for success. When the admissions counseling process
indicates that an applicant lacks sufficient academic background to pursue credit courses, he or
she will be directed to the Developmental Studies program prior to entry into a diploma or
degree curriculum. If the applicant lacks a high school diploma, he or she will be given the
opportunity to pursue studies to achieve an Adult High School Diploma or a North Carolina
equivalency certificate (GED) prior to entering a regular curriculum. Admissions to curricula
are open to applicants without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, age, sex, disability,
or political affiliation.
HISTORY OF FTCC
From a building of 38,000 square feet, a faculty and staff of nine people, and an enrollment
of 50 students, Fayetteville Technical Community College has experienced phenomenal growth
from 1961 to the present. Now in its third decade, FTCC provides programs to meet the vocational, technical, and adult education needs of Fayetteville, Cumberland County and surrounding counties. FTCC currently is housed on an 125-acre campus with a physical plant of over
702,444 square feet and has a full-time faculty and staff of 198 people, an enrollment of over
10,000 curriculum students, and a total operating budget of over 55 million dollars.
FTCC originated in 1961 as the Fayetteville Area Industrial Education Center under the auspices of the City Board of Education and operated in the old senior high school while facilities
in the Honeycutt area were being finished. In 1963, the North Carolina General Assembly created the Department of Community Colleges for the expressed purpose of providing for the
establishment, organization, and administration of a system of educational institutions. Located
throughout the state, these institutions offered courses of instruction in one or more of the general areas of two-year college parallel, technical, vocational, and adult education programs. The
authority for this newly-created department was vested in the North Carolina State Board of
Education. The center became a part of this system at that time.
13
�The center’s progress in providing quality educational programs resulted in the Board of
Trustees requesting that the status “Technical Institute” be given the center. This request was
granted by the State Board of Education in September 1963, and the name Fayetteville Technical Institute was adopted. With the status of “Technical Institute,” the Board of Trustees was
granted authority to award the Associate in Applied Science Degree and Associate Degree in
General Education in addition to the diplomas offered in numerous programs.
From its beginning in 1961 to the present, FTCC has seen the construction of a number of
buildings such as Lafayette Hall, Cumberland Hall, the Paul H. Thompson Resource Center, the
Administration Building, the Student Center, Center for Business and Industry, and the
Advanced Technology Center. In November 1992, Cumberland County voters passed an FTCC
bond referendum which provided funds for construction of the Continuing Education Center.
North Carolinians passed a community college bond in November of 1993 which provided construction funds for the Health Technologies Center. In the fall of 2001, a state-of-the-art Early
Childhood Center was opened to care for 153 children. These buildings are part of the continuous effort to provide state-of-the-art facilities and equipment to train FTCC students for a
broad range of job opportunities.
Effective January 1, 1981, the North Carolina Community College System was transferred
from under the control of the State Board of Education to the newly-created State Board of
Community Colleges. This Board is leading the North Carolina Community College System
into the third decade of educational challenge and beyond.
In January 1988, Fayetteville Technical Institute became Fayetteville Technical Community
College when the North Carolina Department of Community Colleges and the North Carolina
State Legislature allowed all the technical colleges and institutes in the state to refer to themselves as community colleges. The change was in name only as the purpose and mission of
Fayetteville Technical Community College remains intact.
14

�ADMISSIONS
Assessment and Evaluation of Students
Fayetteville Technical Community College wants each student to be successful in meeting
his or her educational goals. To evaluate the level of preparation and to place students in appropriate courses, the College requires entry assessment in the skill areas of English, reading, and
mathematics. To satisfy assessment requirements for most programs the student needs to take
the ACCUPLACER (or other North Carolina Community College System approved assessments) unless eligible for a waiver.
Entry assessment scores will be used for course level placement. Each of the three skill areas
of English, reading and mathematics are independent of each other. A student may place at the
college level in one or more areas and at the college preparatory level in other areas(s). The College may limit the student to college-preparatory courses and any other instruction for which he
or she is adequately prepared.
Requirements for Taking Entry Assessment
Whether the student is seeking full-time of part-time enrollment, unless he or she is qualified for an exception, the student must complete a state-approved assessment as indicated:
1. Prior to participating in registration if the student is seeking a degree.
2. Prior to registration for the first session if a Dual Enrollment student.
3. Prior to registration for any course which has a specific entry assessment score as a prerequisite.
Entry assessment score may not be more than three years old.
Entry Assessment
Students will be exempt from taking the entry assessment for registration in courses for
which they are qualified if they provide written documentation for one of the following exceptions:
1. The student has attended a regionally accredited institution (RAI) in which English was the
language of instruction and has successfully completed with a grade of “C” or higher a
transferable college-level English and/or mathematics course.
2. The student holds an associate’s or bachelor’s degree from a RAI in which English was the
language of instruction and has successfully completed with a grade of “C” or higher a
transferable college-level English and/or mathematics course.
3. The student is enrolled in another college or university and has applied to Fayetteville Tech
for “special credit” status.
4. The student’s official FTCC record indicates that he or she is enrolled for job improvement
or in selected courses with no intent for an FTCC degree.
22
�5. The student has taken the SAT with verbal and math scores at or above 450 each or ACT
composite score of 18 or higher within the last five years.
6. The student chooses to begin with the most basic college-preparatory courses: English 70,
Math 50 and Reading 70.
North Carolina Community College System Approved Entry Assessments
ACCUPLACER
FTCC administers the ACCUPLACER Computerized Placement Tests and Companion
from the College Board. The assessments are Reading Comprehension, Sentence Skills, Computation/Arithmetic, Elementary Algebra, and College-Level Mathematics. There is no charge
for the ACCUPLACER. The assessment takes approximately two to two and one-half hours and
is available days and evenings.
OTHER ASSESSMENTS
Other tests approved by the North Carolina Community College System are the ASSET and
COMPASS.
Retest Policy
Students who wish to take a retest of the entry assessment should make the request through
and FTCC counselor.
There is a three-month waiting period between the initial placement assessment and any
scheduled retest. This three-month waiting period may be waived upon request if, in the counselor’s judgment, the testing candidate has taken sufficient action to assure improvement (or
testing conditions warrant retest).
There is a mandatory three-month waiting period between a retest and any subsequent
retest in order to ensure the validity of the placement assessment results.
Test scores remain current for a period not to exceed three years.
23

ADMISSION OF INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
All foreign students who apply from outside the United States and have not previously attended
an American college or university will be processed as entering freshman. Foreign students are
ONLY admitted to begin their studies for the fall semester.
Application
Your application will not be considered until all of the following items have been received:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Preliminary Application (Form A)
Completed financial certificate (Form B)
TOEFL results (Only official scores sent from Princeton, New Jersey are acceptable)
Official high school (secondary) transcript
Official college or university transcripts, if applicable
Completed Pre-entrance Medical Record
Getting a Student Visa (F-1)
In order to apply for a F-1 or student visa, you must first apply and be admitted to a school in
the U.S. When you are admitted to Fayetteville Technical Community College (FTCC), we will
send you an I.N.S. Form I-20 which authorizes your study period. You can take that I-20 to the
U.S. Consulate in your country and apply for your visa.
In order to obtain a non-immigrant, student visa, you must be able to prove the following:
• That you have strong ties to your home country which demonstrate your intention to return
home after your studies (in other words, that you do not plan to immigrate permanently to
the U.S.)
• That you have sufficient funds to pay for your financial needs while you are studying in the
U.S., including tuition, health insurance, housing, travel expenses, etc.
• That you have legitimate intentions to study full time and gain education and training which
will be useful in your home country
Once you receive your visa from the U.S. consulate in your country, you are eligible to come to
the U.S. and “apply” for entry. An Immigration Inspector at the border (usually the airport) will
28
�decide if you are really admissible, looking for proof of the above criteria once again. Therefore,
you may be asked to show your financial documentation again, or you might be asked to prove
you really plan to study. You must also show the I-20 for the school where you intend to study.
NOTE: People who are on other types of visas may be eligible to study. Please check with the
Director of Admissions to find out whether you can enroll in classes.
English Proficiency
Your proficiency in the use of the English Language and your past academic record will be
important factors in the admission decision. The Test of English as a Foreign Language
(TOEFL) is required of all foreign applicants. To obtain materials and information regarding the
TOEFL, write to:
Test of English as a Foreign Language
Box 899
Princeton, New Jersey 08540 USA
Please specify code number 5208 when requesting your TOEFL scores to be reported to Fayetteville Technical Community College.
Financial Information
As part of the admission process to Fayetteville Technical Community College and before visa
approval to leave your country is granted, you must show evidence of official financial support
(Form B) for each year you will be studying in the United States. The college cannot provide
financial aid to students applying from other nations, so you must certify your own financial
support.
Many international students receive financial help from sources outside the United States.
Therefore, we suggest you consult the excellent publications about study abroad, which may be
available through your educational institutions or the United States Consulate in your country.
You should also investigate financial assistance that may be available through your government
or home university.
Fayetteville Technical Community College is tax supported by the people of North Carolina.
Legal residents of North Carolina and the United States are given preference in the admission
process. Therefore, applications of international students are accepted only on a space availability basis.
Employment
On-campus. F-1 students are allowed to work part-time on the campus of the school they are
attending (and whose I-20 they have). You may work up to 20 hours per week while attending
full-time classes. You can work full-time during summer vacations and between terms, provided
you continue at that school the following term.
29
�Off-campus. Students holding F-1 visas are not authorized to work except under extraordinary circumstances. There are two ways to get permission for off-campus work: practical training and severe economic hardship. The United States Immigration Services must grant
permission.
Period of Authorized Stay
Your admission to the U.S. on an F-1 visa is for “duration of status” (D/S). This is the time estimated for you to complete your approved program of study. During that time, you are required
to make satisfactory progress each term, keep a current passport that is valid for at least six
months into the future, and maintain a valid I-20.
Housing
Fayetteville Technical Community College serves entirely a commuting student body. Housing
is not available on campus. International students must seek housing in the community and
commute daily by public transportation. Arrangements for housing must be made between the
landlord and the student.
Transportation
International students must provide their own transportation or use public transportation to
travel between the campus and their housing accommodations.
Full-time Requirement
International students must enroll as a full-time student. College students must pass a minimum of 12 credits per term. The student should make satisfactory progress in their approved
program each term. Otherwise, the continuation of study on a student visa may be jeopardized
and the Form I-20 rescinded.
Additional Information
If you are a qualified applicant who wishes to attend the College, please apply. Send your request
to:
Director of Admissions
Fayetteville Technical Community College
P. O. Box 35236
Fayetteville, NC 28303-0236 USA
It is your responsibility to have your school principal or headmaster send official copies of
your high school (secondary) transcript directly to us. If you have attended an American college or university and have semester or quarter hours of transferable college work, you must
have an official transcript sent directly from that college or university.
30

�RESIDENCY CLASSIFICATION FOR TUITION PURPOSES
Every applicant is required to provide information regarding his or her length of residency in
North Carolina. The tuition charge for legal residents of North Carolina is less than the tuition
charge for non-residents attending Fayetteville Technical Community College. To qualify for
in-state tuition, a legal resident must have maintained his or her domicile in North Carolina for
at least twelve months prior to his or her classification as a resident for tuition purposes. Copies
of the applicable law (G.S. 116-143.1) and implementing regulation are available in the Admissions Office. Initial classification of residency for tuition purposes is made in the Admissions
Office. Appeals and requests for re-classification should be addressed to the Director of Admissions.
Responsibilities of the Student Relative to Residency Classification
If you currently are classified as a nonresident for tuition purposes, it is your right to petition for a change in classification to that of resident if you claim that you are now and, for at
least the twelve-month period immediately preceding the date of such petition, have been a
legal resident of the State of North Carolina. The fact that you have resided in the state for twelve
months does not in itself constitute in-state residency. You must be able to show proof that you
have indeed taken steps to become a legal resident. Examples are: filing income tax in North
Carolina, registering to vote, listing personal property taxes, automobile registration, etc.
If you currently are classified as a resident for tuition purposes, it is your obligation to petition for a change in classification to that of a nonresident if you have reasonable basis for believing that change in facts requires such a change in classification. Failure to fulfill this obligation
may result in appropriate disciplinary action including, but not necessarily limited to, cancellation of enrollment. If it is determined that, in fact, you have become a nonresident, the effective
date of change in applicable tuition rates shall be the next term following the date of change in
facts which required the change in classification, unless you are deemed eligible to further enjoy
the in-state tuition rate under the statutory twelve-month grace period. If you claim eligibility as
a member of the Armed Forces or a dependent relative of such a member to be charged the
in-state tuition rate under G.S. 116-143.3, you must submit the appropriate application prior to
initial enrollment or re-enrollment for which you claim the tuition benefit. You must submit the
application prior to each successive academic year of enrollment.
North Carolina laws require that each student supply all information requested relative to
residency classification for tuition purposes. Failure to do so would result in classification as a
nonresident for tuition purposes.
38
�REFUND POLICIES
Tuition Refunds
A 75 percent refund may be made upon request of the student if he/she officially withdraws
from the class (es) prior to or on the official 10 percent point of the term or the 10 percent point

refunded with the 75 percent tuition refund. To comply with applicable federal regulations
regarding refunds to individuals or groups, federal regulations will supersede the state refund
regulations stated in this rule.
Bookstore Refunds
Bookstore refunds are made under the following conditions:
a. Students are allowed ten (10) calendar days beginning with the first day of the term to
return textbooks for refund or credit.
b. Books which have not been used, damaged, or marked in will be accepted for 100 percent refund or credit toward the purchase of additional items. Proof of purchase (cash

eligible to be charged the in-state tuition rate. This waiver is for the academic year. Continuing students must re-apply each fall term.
5. Certain out-of-state students, who are members of families that were transferred to North
Carolina by businesses or industries or civilian families transferred to this state by employment, may be eligible for in-state tuition rates.

�FINANCIAL AID
Fayetteville Technical Community College operates with the assumption that no student should
be denied a college education due to lack of financial resources. As far as possible, students are
aided in meeting college costs through careful planning and various forms of financial aid and
other third-party support.
The Financial Aid Office at FTCC administers the various Title IV financial aid programs
under policies established by the College and guidelines provided by the U.S. Department of
Education. The College Financial Aid and Scholarship Committee recommends policy changes
and awards a variety of scholarships.
Financial aid at Fayetteville Technical Community College is offered to all students enrolled
in eligible curricula who meet eligibility requirements. Most aid is granted on the basis of need
rather than scholastic ability. The Financial Aid Office utilizes the Free Application for Federal
Student Aid (FAFSA) to analyze applicant data and determine student eligibility for financial
aid.
All applicants and FTCC students are urged to apply for financial aid. The FAFSA application package is available in the FTCC Financial Aid Office and should be completed as early as
possible. Applicants are urged to read the directions carefully and fill out the form completely
and accurately. The FAFSA form covers all forms of financial aid offered at the college with the
exception of scholarships.
Various resources are available through the Financial Aid Office located in Room 130 of the
Student Center or on our website at www.faytechcc.edu.
STUDENT INSURANCE
All students, either full- or part-time, who are charged a student fee are covered by a master
student accident insurance plan carried by the College. Students are insured while attending
school during the hours that school is in regular session or participating in or attending an
activity (other than an athletic activity) exclusively sponsored and supervised by the College,
and traveling directly to or from such activity (other than an athletic activity) in a vehicle furnished and supervised by the College.
Students participating in athletic activities which are a part of their regularly scheduled
instruction are covered by this insurance. Students participating in organized intramural sports
are also covered.
The student accident insurance plan does not guarantee payment of all medical costs, and
the student is responsible for the payment of all costs in excess of those paid by the insurance
policy. A copy of the student accident insurance plan for the College is available in the Health
Services Office.

COOPERATIVE EDUCATION
Cooperative Education offers an extension and application of classroom instruction
through a supervised work experience that is related to the student’s educational goals. It is an
educational plan designed to use the “laboratories of the community” in business, industry, and
civic agencies to the best advantage of the students, the college, and the employers.

STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES
The college recognizes its responsibility under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
to provide equal access to education for students with disabilities. Support services are available
to the hearing impaired, visually impaired, orthopedically handicapped, learning disabled, and
other health impaired individuals. Please note the following:
1. Students who feel that they need accommodations due to a disability or handicap must
complete a “Special Populations Student Intake” form indicating the nature of their disability.
2. Students who have identified themselves as having special needs may make a request for
special accommodations to the Special Populations Counselor or the Director of Counseling Services. New students should make such requests at least 30 days prior to the beginning
of their first term of enrollment at the College. Continuing students should communicate
47
�their needs to the Special Populations Counselor immediately upon the discovery of the
need. Early communication of special needs provides the time needed to arrange for services and/or the procurement of equipment that may be needed by a student.
3. Students must arrange to provide supporting documentation upon request. Federal regulations obligate the student to provide information on identifying appropriate and effective
auxiliary aids.
4. Each request will be evaluated by the Special Populations Counselor and/or the Director of
Counseling, who will recommend any modifications to the educational plan that are essential to satisfactory completion of course requirements by the student according to the ADA
guidelines.
5. The Special Populations Counselor and/or the Director of Counseling will provide the
student with a “Disabled Student Enrollment” form which lists recommended services
and/or accommodations. This document is to be used to inform college faculty and staff of
authorized accommodations. For further information and assistance, contact the Special
Populations Counselor.
Reasonable Accommodations
The following are considered reasonable accommodations to be made for students with disabilities:
1. The process must be an interactive one involving “a reasonable reciprocal effort” on the part
of both parties.
2. The College may not make a unilateral decision regarding the existence of a disability or the
accommodation that is necessary.
3. What is “reasonable” involves a detailed analysis of the specific circumstances of the case in
question. Broad generalizations are not acceptable. An “individualized assessment” of the
student’s situation must be conducted.
4. The college is not required to provide specifically what the student requests. An alternative
accommodation may be provided if it is effective.
5. The College does not have to provide accommodations that are not effective. The College
has a right to refuse to provide auxiliary aids and services that do not in fact provide meaningful access.
6. The College must be given a reasonable amount of time to evaluate requests and to offer the
necessary accommodations.
7. The College does not have to provide accommodations that will impose an “undue administrative or financial burden”.
8. Challenges to student’s requests must clearly involve substantive questions regarding the
manifestations of the disability of the nature of the accommodations requested. Mere
administrative expedience or philosophical differences of opinions cannot be used as a justification for denying reasonable accommodations.
48
�9. Determining what is reasonable requires one to balance two important rights: the student’s
rights to be provided meaningful access and the College’s right to protect the integrity of its
programs and services.
STUDENT HOUSING
Housing arrangements are the student’s responsibility. As a member of the North Carolina
Department of Community Colleges, FTCC does not provide student housing. Assistance is
available in locating living arrangements in the community. Students in need of housing should
contact the Student Activities Office in the Student Center. The college assumes no responsibility in any financial arrangement between the student and the landlord. Financial arrangements
for rooms are on an individual basis between the student and the landlord.
THE CRIME AWARENESS AND CAMPUS SECURITY ACT OF 1990
The Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990, requires all institutions of higher education that receive federal funding to collect all incidents of certain crimes that occur on- and offcampus and publish the data in an annual report for review by all interested personnel. A copy
of the FTCC Annual Security Report is maintained on file in the Campus Library and the Campus Safety and Security Office.
VETERANS SERVICES OFFICE
The FTCC Veterans Services Office (VSO) serves as the interface for veterans and eligible family members seeking access to educational benefits provided by the Veterans Administration. As
such, it is the responsibility of the VSO to provide counseling, clarification of VA regulations,
and certification for pay to the appropriate Department of Veterans Administration office.

�ACADEMIC LIFE
ACADEMIC POLICIES
Credits
1. All curricular students receive semester-hour credit for courses which they successfully
complete.
2.
The Board of Trustees of Fayetteville Technical Community College has been authorized
by the North Carolina Board of Community Colleges to award the Associate in Arts, Associate in Science, Associate in Applied Science Degree, Associate Degree in General Education,
the Diploma, and the Certificate upon successful completion of curricular requirements.
3. Fayetteville Technical Community College has structured its curricula, of both one and two
years’ duration, on a post-secondary level and grants credit on a semester-hour basis.
Instruction in all curricula is post-secondary and requires students to be capable of study
beyond the high school equivalency level for success. The curricula are designed on a
semester-hour basis to include general education areas which require extra out-of-class
preparation each term. Each class, lab, and shop session is of 50 minutes duration and
requires a minimum of outside preparation of two hours for each classroom session, one
hour for each lab session and additional outside preparation for shop sessions.
Semester-hour credit is granted on a basis of one credit to three sessions of shop, one credit
to two sessions of lab, and one credit to each classroom session of weekly attendance and
one credit to ten hours of cooperative work experience or practicum.
4.
Students with academic deficiencies who require remedial work as background preparation may enroll in developmental studies courses. Developmental studies courses carry
credit hours for institutional accounting purposes only and are not counted as credit hours
toward graduation in any of the curricula.
Course Repeat Policy and Procedures
A student may repeat for credit or audit any curriculum course one time in an effort to earn a
higher grade and/or to add to his/her mastery of course content. If a student petitions for
another attempt through the appropriate Dean, a third and final attempt may be granted based
on documented major extenuating circumstances. When a course is repeated, the last grade
earned (A, B, C, D, F, and WF) will be counted in determining the hours earned and in determining the grade point average at Fayetteville Technical Community College. However, all
grades will be recorded on the student’s official transcript. Grades of withdrawal passing (WP)
and audit (AU) are not calculated in the GPA, but they will be considered as a repeat grade.
50
�A student who earns a deficient grade (“D,” “F” or “WF”) in a required course two times
must see a counselor. Specific program requirements for academic progress are outlined in the
College catalog (i.e., Health occupations curriculums, Funeral Service Education, and Paralegal
Technology).
The University of North Carolina System and other colleges or universities require that a
student earn a grade of “C” or better in each transfer course completed. A student planning to
transfer should realize that receiving institutions do not have consistent policies regarding grade
forgiveness. Admissions personnel will review the transcripts of transfer applicants and may
recompute grade point averages to include the grade originally assigned, or compute all grades
assigned at Fayetteville Technical Community College.
Note to students receiving VA assistance: Two attempts will be the maximum allowed for
counting a course as part of a student’s credit hour load for determining eligibility. Veterans who
wish to repeat courses, for which a passing grade (D or higher) has been earned, will not receive
educational benefits for repeating those courses.
Note to students receiving Title IV Financial Aid: All attempted classes will be counted toward
academic progress.
Note to students interested in a health program: Previously completed science courses must
have been satisfactorily completed with a grade of “C” or better within five years of entry in a
health program. These courses may be attempted only twice. The appropriate health department chairperson through the Dean of Health Programs may approve exceptions.
Effective: Fall term 2001
Revised: February 2003
Course Repeat Procedures. These procedures apply to all students at FTCC.
Step 1: The request for course repeat must be initiated by the student and directed to the Registrar. All requests must be initiated prior to the end of the final term of enrollment (i.e., at
the end of the fall term if graduating at the end of the spring term). Students applying
for health programs must make the request prior to the January 30 deadline. The
“Course Repeat” form is available in the Registrar’s office.
A student may petition in writing to the Associate Vice President for Curriculum Programs
to have grades which are at least seven years old forgiven.
The Vice President for Academic and Student Services must approve exceptions to this policy.
51
�Classification of Students
Full-time student: A student enrolled for 12 or more semester hours. (Summer semester: 9
credit hours)*
Part-time student: A student enrolled for fewer than 12 semester hours. (Summer semester: 9
credit hours)*
Freshman: A student who has fewer than the number of semester hours required for the first
two terms.
Sophomore: A student who has accumulated credits of 30 or more total credit hours.
* Financial aid recipients registered during the summer semester will need 12 semester credit
hours for full PELL awards. VA requirements may vary. See the VSO.
Schedule Adjustments and Withdrawals
A. Students may add a class within the first five school days (three days for 8-week or 9-week
terms) of any term if the class has not met.
B. Once a student has duly enrolled in a class and paid the registration fee, the student shall
maintain membership in said class, until one of the following occurs:
1. Student Withdrawal – He or she officially withdraws. This constitutes student withdrawal from the College and is effective as of that date.
2. Administrative Withdrawal
a. He or she ceases attending class. Students who are absent for more than percent of
the scheduled class sessions may be dropped from the class rolls.
b. The responsible instructional personnel are reasonably assured that the student does
not intend to pursue the learning activities of the class. This constitutes administrative withdrawal and is effective as of that date.
c. He/she completes the minimum objectives stated for the class or transfers to another
class.
C A student may drop a class as late as the 30 percent date of the term without penalty. The
transcript will indicate a “W.” Students who drop between the 30 percent date of the term
and the 80 percent date will receive a grade of “WP” or “WF”, depending on the student’s
average on all course requirements. Course requirements/tests missed in the remainder of
the class will be averaged into the final grade as zero.
D. A student who wishes to withdraw after the 30 percent date of the term must complete a
“Registration Change” form, have it initialed by the faculty member, and present it to the
Registrar before an official withdrawal can be recorded.
E. Students who are dropped for excessive absences prior to the 30 percent point of the class
will be assigned a grade of “W.”
F. Failure to withdraw properly will jeopardize the student’s right to re-enroll at a later date.
G. Students receiving Financial Aid or VA Educational benefits should confer with personnel in
those offices before dropping classes or withdrawing from the College.
52
�GRADING PROCEDURES
FTCC grades are based on a 4.0 grading system. Each grade is assigned a “grade-point equivalent” in quality points for each term credit hour scheduled. The scholastic point average is
determined by dividing the total of quality points earned by the number of term hours scheduled.
Numerical Grade
93 – 100
85 – 92
77 – 84
70 -76
0 – 69
Grade
A – Excellent
B – Good
C – Average
D – Below Average
F – Failure
I – Incomplete
Grade Point Equivalent
4 grade points for each credit hour
3 grade points for each credit hour
2 grade points for each credit hour
1 grade point for each credit hour
0 grade point
After eight (8)weeks for 16 week classes
and 4 weeks for 8 or 9 week classes, the
grade becomes an “F”
AU – Audit (No Credit)
No effect on grade point average
P – Proficiency
No effect on grade point average
S – Satisfactory
No effect on grade point average
T – Transfer
No effect on grade point average
U – Unsatisfactory
No effect on grade point average
W – Withdrew
No effect on grade point average
W* – Withdrew
No effect on grade point average
W/F – Withdrew Failing
0 grade point
W/P – Withdrew Passing
No effect on grade point average
I (Incomplete) may be given at the discretion of the instructor when all course requirements
have not been met. After eight weeks from the beginning of the next term, an incomplete
grade in a sixteen-week class becomes an “F.” After four weeks from the beginning of the
next term, an incomplete grade in an eight or nine-week class becomes an “F.”
P (Proficiency) by examination may be given after a preliminary screening test given by the
department chairperson after the student has registered for the course. This process must be
completed within the first four days of the sixteen-week term and the first three days of an
eight or a nine-week course.
AU (Audit) requests must be made at the first class session. The intent of the AU is to allow students to take courses for no credit. Forms must be obtained from the Registrar’s Office and
be signed by both student and instructor during the first five days of the 16-week term and
the first three days of an eight or nine week term. Developmental classes may not be
audited. To receive the AU, the student must meet all course requirements.
53
�S
(Satisfactory) is the grade given for the successful completion of certain required courses
(i.e., ACA 115 or ACA 111).
T (Transfer) credit is granted for courses completed at other regionally accredited community
colleges, colleges, and universities.
U (Unsatisfactory) is the grade given for unsatisfactory completion of certain required courses
(i.e., ACA 115 or ACA 111).
U* (Unsatisfactory) is the grade given for unsatisfactory completion of remedial courses.
W (Withdrew) is the grade given when a student may drop courses after the 10 percent date of
the term, but before the 30 percent date of the term. No penalty is involved.
W* (Withdrew) is the grade given when a student may drop courses on or before the 10 percent
date of the courses. No penalty is involved.
WP (Withdrew Passing) is the grade given when withdrawals or drops occur between the 30
percent date of the term and the 80 percent date if the student’s average in the class is equivalent to a passing grade.
WF(Withdrew Failing) is the grade given when a student’s average in a class is equivalent to a
failing grade and the withdrawal or drop occur between the 30 percent date of the term and
the 80 percent date of the term.
Students will receive their grades in the mail, so be sure
to report any change of addresses to the Registrar’s
Office immediately.
All final course grades will be letter grades in accordance with the adopted grading system.
Student grade reports are mailed at the end of each term.
All students must have at least a 2.0 grade point average (major and cumulative GPA) and
have passed all curricular subjects as listed in the course outline under which they entered to be
eligible for graduation. They must also meet the grade level needed in major subjects required
to take licensure examinations.
Health occupations curricula, Funeral Service Education, and Paralegal Technology require
course grades of C or better in order to progress to the next course/term. Each department area
will issue to the student in written form the necessary information to cover such grading policies. Students who request transfers to other degree curricula are expected to have maintained a
2.0 GPA on all courses completed including prerequisite courses.
54
�DEVELOPMENTAL COURSE GRADING SYSTEM
Courses numbered below 100 are developmental courses. The following grades are assigned
for developmental courses: A, B, C, or U. Students who receive a grade of “U” (Unsatisfactory
Progress) will be required to re-take the course.
Developmental course grades are not counted as credit towards graduation, nor are they calculated into the student’s cumulative Grade Point Average.
STANDARDS OF PROGRESS
Academic Standards
The College requires that students maintain a cumulative and/or major grade point average
of 2.00 or better in order to meet institutional standards of progress and be eligible for graduation.
Academic Probation
Students enrolled in a curriculum program will be placed on Academic Probation if any of
the following conditions occur:
1. Major GPA is below 2.0
2. Failure to successfully complete 50 percent of credit hours attempted for two consecutive
terms
3. Special credit students must maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.00 or better.
Note: All students are responsible for being aware of any additional departmental requirements.
To be removed from Academic Probation, a student must attend mandatory counseling sessions and achieve a major GPA of 2.00 while completing 50 percent of the credit hours
attempted. Students on probation should not enroll in accelerated sessions (8 or 9-week sessions) without advisor approval. A student on academic probation would be eligible to continue
enrollment for no more than 24 semester hours.
A student enrolled in developmental coursework must attend mandatory counseling sessions and successfully complete required developmental courses with a grade of “C” or better.
Students on Academic Probation may not enroll in any course requiring a developmental prerequisite without first completing the developmental course(s).
A student simultaneously enrolled in developmental coursework and major courses will be
placed on Academic Probation if either condition above occurs or if the student fails to complete a required developmental course with a grade of “C” or better.
55
�Academic Suspension
Students failing to remove themselves from Academic Probation after attempting 24 semester hours will be placed on Academic Suspension for a minimum of one semester. Academic
Suspension means a student may not enroll in any credit courses offered by FTCC during the
suspension period.
Appeal of Academic Suspension
To be removed from Academic Suspension and continue in the same program, a student
must apply for readmission through the Director of Admissions and be approved by the department chairperson in order to re-enroll. When readmitted to the same program, a student will be
placed on Academic Probation and must achieve a 2.0 GPA for the coursework attempted while
successfully completing at least 50 percent of the credit attempted. Students who do not achieve
these requirements will be dismissed from the college as ineligible to re-enter that same curriculum program. Students may also be readmitted to the college by redirection of program
through counseling.
Appeals of the decision of the department chair or Director of Admissions may be made to
the appropriate program area dean. All appeals must be in writing and received no later than
five days from the time of notification of the readmission decision. Students placed on academic
suspension may be allowed to continue attending class until the appeal has been resolved. The
decision of the dean in matters of academic probation and academic suspension is final and not
subject to further appeal.
GENERAL COMPETENCIES FOR FTCC GRADUATES
The following competencies were developed within the framework of Fayetteville Technical
Community College’s purpose statement which reflects the institution’s desire to meet the needs

• have passing grades in all required courses.
• have taken care of ALL financial indebtedness to Fayetteville Technical Community College,
including a graduation fee.
• fill out an application to graduate at a time designated. Failure to do so may result in diplomas not being available at the time of graduation. The College assumes no responsibility for
making special adjustments for students who fail to file applications by the designated time.
A candidate who fails to file an application for graduation or meet graduation requirements
by the designated date automatically voids his candidacy for that particular graduation.
• complete a minimum of 25 percent of resident credit at FTCC.
Course Substitutions. In special circumstances, a student may apply to his or her advisor for
approval for a course substitution. The course used as a substitute must have academic relevance to both the course it replaces and the curriculum. Technical and skills-based courses must
have been completed within the last seven years. The substitution will be made on an individual
basis and will apply only to the curriculum in which the student is enrolled. Substitution of
courses for graduation purposes is limited to ten percent of the total credit hours required to
graduate and must be approved by the department chairperson and the program area dean. All
exceptions to the ten percent limit must be approved by the Associate Vice President for Student
Services.
Prior to enrollment in the course to be used as a substitute, a completed Course Substitution
Form must be received by the Registrar’s office.* All course substitutions will be made upon the
recommendation of the advisor, with endorsements by the department chairperson, division
58
�chair, and curriculum program dean. Exceptions to this policy must be approved by the Vice
President for Academic and Student Services.
* Students receiving assistance from the Veterans Administrations must have prior approval to
make course substitutions from the Veterans’ Services Officer. Electives taken by students under VA
educational benefits may exceed the total required hours of a curriculum only by the hours of
the last elective taken to fulfill those requirements.
STUDENT OBLIGATIONS
Attendance Policy
Regular class attendance is an essential part of the educational process; therefore, absences
must be kept to a minimum. While stressing regular attendance, FTCC simultaneously desires
to allow students to develop a real sense of personal responsibility toward their studies. This
policy has been established for the benefit of students who are forced, because of reasons
beyond their control, to miss classes.
1. Students who add a course after the first day of the class are responsible for all materials
covered from the beginning of the course.
2. Instructors are encouraged to refer students with excessive absences to the Counseling
Office.
3. Each student is expected to attend class regularly—at least 80 percent of all scheduled contact hours.
4. If absences exceed 20 percent, the faculty member may drop the student from the course, or
if the student is performing acceptably, he or she may be allowed to continue in the course
under conditions set by the instructor.
5. Tardy students interrupt the beginning of a class meeting. If a student enters the class after
the faculty member has started the class, the student shall be recorded as being tardy. Three
tardies shall be counted as one absence.
6. No absence, for any reason, shall excuse a student from an announced test or other assigned
activity. Make-up of any tests or work missed shall be at the discretion of the faculty member.
7. Each student dropped may submit a request through the Director of Counseling for review
by the Student Appeals Committee.
8. The following programs and departments have special attendance policies which will be
distributed to the students during the first week of classes: Associate Degree Nursing, BLET,
Dental Assisting, Dental Hygiene, Emergency Medical Science, Emergency Medical Technician (Continuing Education), Nursing Assistant (Continuing Education), Pharmacy Technology, Phlebotomy, Physical Therapist Assistant, Practical Nursing, Radiography,
Respiratory Care, Speech-Language Pathology Assistant, and Surgical Technology.
59

�STUDENT RIGHTS, RESPONSIBILITIES AND
JUDICIAL PROCEDURES
Academic institutions exist for the transmission of knowledge, the pursuit of truth, the development of students, and the well-being of society. Free inquiry and free expression are indispensable to the attainment of these goals. As members of the FTCC academic community,
students are encouraged to develop the capacity for critical judgment and to engage in a sustained and independent search for truth.
Freedom to teach and freedom to learn are inseparable facets of academic conditions in the
classroom, on the campus, and in the community. Students should exercise their freedom with
responsibility. As members of the FTCC academic community, students are subject to the obligations which accrue to them by virtue of this membership. As members of the larger community of which the College is a part, students are entitled to all rights and protection accorded
them by the laws of that community.
By the same token, students are also subject to all laws, whether on campus or off campus,
the enforcement of which is the responsibility of duly constituted authorities. When students
violate laws, they may incur penalties prescribed by legal authorities. In such instances, College
discipline will be initiated only when the presence of the student on campus will disrupt the
educational process of the College. However, when a student’s violation of the law also adversely
affects the College’s pursuit of its recognized educational objectives, the College may enforce its
own regulations. When students violate College regulations, they are subject to disciplinary
action by the College whether or not their conduct violates the law. If a student’s behavior
simultaneously violates both College regulations and the law, the College may take disciplinary
action independent of that taken by legal authorities.
STUDENT RIGHTS
1. All rights and privileges guaranteed to every citizen by the Constitution of the United States
and by the state of North Carolina shall not be denied any student.
2. Within limitations, students are free to pursue their educational goals. Appropriate opportunities for learning in the classroom and on the campus shall be provided for by the college. Student performance will be evaluated solely on an academic basis, not on opinions or
conduct in matters unrelated to academic standards.
3. Students have the right to freedom of expression, inquiry, and assembly subject to reasonable and non-discriminatory rules and regulations regarding time, place, and manner.
4. Students have the right to inquire about and to propose improvements in policies, regulations and procedures affecting the welfare of students through established student government procedures, campus committees, and college offices.
61
�5. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 provides safeguards regarding the
confidentiality of an access to student records, ad this Act will be adhered to by the College.
Students and former students have the right to review their official records and to request a
hearing if they challenge the contents of these records. No records shall be made available to
unauthorized personnel or groups outside the College without the written consent of the
student involved, except under legal compulsion.
6. No disciplinary sanctions other than removal from class or activity (only for duration of said
activity) may be imposed upon any student without due process. Due process procedures
are established to guarantee a student accused of a Student Code of Conduct violation the
right of a hearing, a presentation of charges, evidence for charges, the right to present evidence, the right to have witnesses on one’s behalf and to hear witnesses on behalf of the
accuser(s), and the right of appeal.
STUDENT CODE OF CONDUCT
The College reserves the right to maintain a safe and orderly educational environment for students and staff. Therefore, when in the judgment of College officials, a student’s conduct disrupts or threatens to disrupt the College community, appropriate disciplinary action will be
taken to restore and protect the orderliness of the FTCC community.
Students are expected to conduct themselves in accordance with generally accepted standards of scholarship and conduct. The purpose of this code is not to restrict student rights but
to protect the rights of individuals in their academic pursuits.
The following regulations set forth rules of conduct which prohibit certain types of student
behavior. Violation of one or more of the following regulations may result in disciplinary sanctions by the College and/or legal sanctions:
1. Academic Dishonesty – taking or acquiring possession of any academic material (test information, research papers, notes, etc.) from a member of the College staff or student body
without permission; receiving or giving help during tests; submitting papers or reports (that
are supposed to be original work) that are not entirely the student’s own, except in cases of
group assignments; not giving credit for others’ work (plagiarism).
2. Theft of, misuse of, or damage to College property, or theft of or damage to property of a
member of the College community or a campus visitor on College premises or at College
functions; unauthorized entry upon the property of the College or into a College facility or
a portion thereof which has been restricted in use and thereby placed off limits; unauthorized presence in a College facility after closing hours.
3. Possession of or use of alcoholic beverages or being in a state of intoxication on the College
campus or at College sponsored or supervised functions off campus or in College owned
vehicles. Possession, use or distribution of any illegal drugs, except as expressly permitted by
62
�law. Any influence which may be attributed to the use of drugs or of alcoholic beverages
shall not in any way limit the responsibility of the individual for the consequences of his/her
actions.
4. Lewd or indecent conduct, including public physical or verbal action or distribution of
obscene or libelous written material on the FTCC campus.
5. Mental or physical abuse of any person on College premises or at College sponsored or College supervised functions, including verbal or physical actions which threaten or endanger
the health or safety of any such persons.
6. Any unwelcome verbal or physical act or behavior which is of a sexually suggestive or
harassing nature and which in any way interferes with the student’s or an employee’s performance or creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment.
7. Intentional obstruction or disruption of teaching, research, administration or disciplinary
proceedings, or other College activities, including public service functions, and other duly
authorized activities on College premises.
8. Occupation or seizure in any manner of College property, a College facility or any portion
thereof for a use inconsistent with prescribed, customary, or authorized use.
9. Participating in or conducting an assembly, demonstration, or gathering in a manner which
threatens or causes injury to person or property; which interferes with free access to ingress
or egress of College facilities; which is obstructive or disruptive to the education process or
institutional functions of the College; remaining at the scene of such an assembly after being
asked to leave by a representative of the College staff.
10. Possession or use of a firearm, or other deadly weapon, incendiary device or explosive,
except in connection with a College-approved activity. (This also includes unauthorized use
of any instrument.)
11. Setting off a fire alarm, or using, or tampering with any fire safety equipment, except with
reasonable belief in the need for such alarm or equipment.
12. Gambling.
13. Smoking and/or using other forms of tobacco products in classrooms, shops, and labs or
other unauthorized areas.
14. Violation of College regulations regarding the operation and parking of motor vehicles.
15. Forgery, alteration, or misuse of College documents, records, or instruments of identification with intent to deceive.
16 Failure to comply with instructions of College officials acting in performance of their duties.
17. Violation of the terms of disciplinary probation or any College regulation during the period
of probation.
18. Fiscal irresponsibility such as failure to pay College levied fines, failure to repay College
funded loans, or the passing of worthless checks to College officials.
19. Violation of a local, state, or federal criminal law on College premises adversely affecting the
College community’s pursuit of its proper educational purposes.
20. Students must not engage directly in, or aid or abet in, acts such as the playing of radios,
63
�stereos, and tape players or the personal use of loud, threatening or obscene language which
disrupts, disturbs, or interferes with the peace, order or discipline while on College property
or attending College activities.
21. Minors under age sixteen (16), unless enrolled as an FTCC student, must not be left unattended on campus at any time. Without college authorization, minors under age sixteen (16)
are not allowed in classrooms, labs, shops, or other instructional areas.
22. This Student Code of Conduct is not all-inclusive. Other conduct which is disruptive may
be subject to appropriate sanctions.

may not use or distribute personally owned software on FTCC computers or local area network.
Employees are not permitted to copy software from FTCC computers and install it on home or
any other computer without the expressed written permission of the license owner.
A variety of software is available on the Internet. Some of this software, called “Freeware” or
“Shareware’ is available, free of charge, for limited use and may be downloaded to FTCC’s computers with prior written approval of the MIS Department. Other software available on the
Internet and from other electronic sources, however, requires the user to obtain a license for its
use, sometimes for a fee. No employee shall download such software to FTCC computers without prior written approval of the MIS Department.
College owned or operated computing resources are for the use of faculty, students, staff,
and other authorized individuals. Users must exercise responsible, ethical behavior when using
these resources. The College does not attempt to articulate all required or unacceptable behavior by its users. Therefore, individuals are expected to use good judgment in using computer
resources. To assist in such judgment, the following guidelines have been developed:
1. Computing resources and access accounts are to be used only for the purpose for which they
are assigned and are not to be used for commercial purposes or non-college related activities.

classes requiring computer use.
3. An access account assigned to an individual must not be used by others. Individuals are
responsible for the proper use of their accounts, including proper password protection and
appropriate use of Internet resources. Allowing friends, family or co-workers to use the
account is a serious violation of these guidelines.
64
�4. All computer software is protected by the federal copyright law and most is proprietary and
protected by legal licensing agreements in addition to the copyright law. The user is responsible for being aware of the licensing restrictions for the software used on any system.
5. Individuals shall not engage in activities which damage or disrupt hardware or communication such as virus creation and propagation, wasting system resources, and overloading networks with excessive data.
6. Individuals shall not monopolize or misuse system resources, for example, by requesting
multiple copies from printers or by playing games.

DISCIPLINARY ACTION
Immediate Suspension
If an act of misconduct threatens the health or safety of any member of the academic community or seriously disrupts the function and good order of the College, an instructor or
administrative officer may direct the student(s) involved to cease and desist such conduct and
advise them that failing to cease and desist will result in immediate suspension. The instructor
may suspend the student(s) from that class until further notice. An administrative officer may
suspend the student(s) from either the class or the College until a resolution of the matter can be
made. Disruptive behavior may include, but not be limited to, obscene and/or disruptive language, threatening actions, and blocking or restricting access to College classes, offices, and programs.
The instructor or administrative officer invoking such suspension shall notify the Program
Area Dean/Director in writing of the individual(s) involved and the nature of the infraction as
soon as possible but no more than two days following the incident. The Dean or Director shall
resolve the matter in a timely fashion utilizing the steps outlined below.
Responsibility for Implementation
The program area dean is responsible for implementing student discipline procedures.
Disciplinary Procedures
In order to provide an orderly procedure for handling student disciplinary cases in accordance with due process and justice, the following procedures will be followed:
1. Charges: Any administrative official, faculty/staff member, or student may file charges with
the FTCC Security Office against any student or student organization for violations of College regulations. The individual(s) making the charge must complete a charge form stating:
a. name of the student(s) involved,
b. the alleged violation of the specific Code of Conduct,
c. the time, place, and date of the incident,
d. names of person(s) directly involved or witnesses to the infractions,
e. any action taken that relates to the matter, and

66
�schedule a meeting with the student. After discussing the alleged infraction with the
student, the dean may act as follows:
a. drop the charges,
b. impose a sanction consistent with those shown below, and/or
c. refer the student to a College office or community agency for services.
3. Notification: The decision of the Dean/Director shall be presented to the student in writing

schedule an appointment with the Dean/Director or where the student refuses to cooperate,
the dean shall send a certified letter to the student’s last known address providing the
student with a list of charges, the Dean’s/Director’s decision, and instructions governing the
appeal process.
Sanctions
1. Reprimand: A written communication which gives official notice to the student that any
subsequent offense against the Student Code of Conduct will carry heavier penalties
because of this prior infraction.
2. General Probation: An individual may be placed on General Probation when involved in a
minor disciplinary offense. General Probation has two (2) important implications: the individual is given a change to show capability and willingness to observe the Student Code of
Conduct without further penalty; secondly, if the individual errs again, further action will
be taken. This probation will be in effect for no more than two (2) terms.
3. Restrictive Probation: Restrictive Probation results in loss of good standing and becomes a
matter of record. Restrictive conditions may limit activity in the college community. Generally, the individual will not be eligible for initiation into any local or national organization
and may not receive any college award or other honorary recognition. The individual may
not occupy a position of leadership with any college or student organization or activity. This
probation will be in effect for not less than two (2) terms. Any violation of Restrictive Probation may result in immediate SUSPENSION.
4. Restitution: Paying for damaging, misusing, destroying or losing property belonging to the
College, College personnel, or students.
5. Interim Suspension: Exclusion from class and/or other privileges or activities as set forth in
the notice, until a final decision has been made concerning the alleged violation.
6. Loss of Academic Credit or Grade: Imposed as a result of academic dishonesty.
7. Withholding grade reports, diploma, or right to register or participate in graduation ceremonies: Imposed when financial obligations are not met.
8. Suspension: Exclusion from class (es), and/or all other privileges or activities of the college
for a specified period of time. This sanction is reserved for those offenses warranting discipline more severe than probation or for repeated misconduct. Students who receive this
sanction must get specific written permission from the dean before returning to campus.
67
�9. Expulsion: Dismissing a student from campus for an indefinite period losing student status.
The student may be readmitted to the College only with the approval of the Vice President
for Academic Affairs.

period of time. If group violations are repeated during the term of the sentence, the charter
may be revoked or activities restricted.
11. Group Restriction: Removing College recognition during the term in which the offense
occurred or for a longer period (usually not more than one other term). While under
restriction, the group may not seek or add members, hold or sponsor events in the College
community, or engage in other activities as specified.
12. Group Charter Revocation: Removal of College recognition for a group, club, society, or
other organizations for a minimum of two years. Recharter after that time must be approved
by the President.

Basic Skills Education
The Basic Skills Program includes the areas of Adult Basic Education (ABE), Adult High
School Diploma (AHS), Compensatory Education (CED), English as a Second Language (ESL),
General Educational Development (GED), Human Resources Development (HRD), Workforce
Preparedness Center, and Basic Skills Student Services.
Adult Basic Skills Program
The Adult Basic Education Program at FTCC is the cornerstone upon which the overall Basic
Skills Program is built. ABE is a dynamic outreach program specifically targeting non-readers
and other undereducated adults. A variety of traditional and non-traditional, innovative curricula have been implemented to upgrade the academic skills of this population. Special programs
often offered through formal partnerships with other agencies have promoted program accessibility.
Adult High School Diploma Program (AHS)
The Adult High School diploma is a course of studies in 14 core and 7 elective subjects. This
program is designed to give eligible adults in Cumberland County an opportunity to earn a high
school diploma. A student must be 18 years of age or older to enter the program. A student less
than 18 years of age must be screened through Basic Skills Student Services to determine eligibility.
Each of the subjects offers a concentrated study of a minimum of sixty-five (65) hours. Following assessment and evaluation of student academic transcripts, students are informed as to
the number of courses needed to complete requirements for their adult high school diploma.
These requirements include each student passing the N.C. Competency Test. These requirements must be met regardless of any program interruptions (class cancellations, etc.). The
diploma is issued by Fayetteville Technical Community College in cooperation with the Cum-
77
�berland County Board of Education.
Each course is taught by a qualified instructor who possesses at least a four-year degree. The
instructor uses modern classroom techniques, which include current textbooks, audiovisual
aids, community resources, computer-assisted learning and a variety of other teaching methods.
ABE & GED Correspondence
ABE & GED Correspondence provides an additional opportunity for adults who are unable
to attend regular classes. Completion of each lesson helps prepare the participant for further
educational opportunities that may include successful completion of the official GED test.
Basic Skills Resource Center
The Basic Skills Resource Center offers individualized instruction and study opportunities,
including employment readiness and advancement training, in all areas of Basic Skills Education. Computer-assisted instruction, along with a variety of other materials, allows students to
learn at their own pace and enables them to reach their goals.
Compensatory Education (CED)
Compensatory Education is designed to provide remedial academics to adults who have
been diagnosed as being a delayed learner and who can provide documentation of mental retardation. The program includes task-analyzed lessons in language arts, math, social sciences, consumer education, health and community living skills.
English as a Second Language (ESL)
English as a Second Language classes are designed for adults who are not native English
speakers. Instruction in reading, writing, speaking, and listening is tailored to meet individual
needs. Three distinct levels are offered, Beginning, Intermediate and Advanced, to help students
acquire functional English competence.
Family Literacy Program (FLP)
Family Literacy is designed to break the discouraging cycle of under education, poverty and
dependence of parents whose educational level is below that of a high school graduate. The goal

parent the chance to enhance his/her skill level or to earn a GED Diploma while providing their
young children with constructive preschool or elementary school activities.
