Central Carolina Community College has been approved to participate in the National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements.
Supervised Field Experience
Courses and programs incorporating a “supervised field experience” are covered by the provisions of SARA. Under SARA a “supervised field experience” means a student learning experience under the oversight of a supervisor, mentor, faculty member or other qualified professional, located in the host state, who has a direct or indirect reporting responsibility to the institution where the student is enrolled, whether or not credit is granted. Examples include practicum, student teaching, or internships. However, see below regarding programs for licensed professions.
Student Grievance Procedure
The purpose of the student grievance procedure is to provide a system to channel student complaints against a college employee. Such complaints include academic grades, alleged discrimination, and alleged harassment (see page 120-121 of the Policies and Procedure Manual).

Professional Licensure and Certification
Currently, Central Carolina 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. If you are considering a program at Central Carolina Community College that leads to licensure or certification and you do not live in North Carolina review the Professional Licensure and Certification information online and if you still have questions contact the lead instructor for that program.
View the Licensure List to learn about the appropriate licensing or certification organization for your program.
