SERVICES FOR STUDENTSWITH DISABILITIES
The college provides support services to maximize independence and
encourage the integration of students with disabilities into all areas of
college life. The particular needs of each student are considered on an
individual basis. Students with disabilities are encouraged to contact
the Services for Students with Disabilities office as early as possible
after applying for admission. Reasonable accommodations, based on
documentation, are then offered to qualified students for courses and
placement testing. Students in need of sign language interpreting
services should contact the office two weeks prior to the beginning of

CONTINUING EDUCATION RECORD
Please contact the Welcome Center in writing to obtain a copy of your
noncredit course record. Course records contain a student’s complete
noncredit course history as of July 1, 2001. Beginning fall 2004, the record
also records whether a CEU-bearing course was successfully completed.
The Continuing Education Certificate is an informal award (does not
count towards a degree or academic certificate requirements) offered
by Frederick Community College. The certificate is awarded in identified
noncredit instructional areas for individual courses or an identified
sequence of courses generally totaling 90 or more hours of instruction
leading to an occupational objective. Instruction typically consists of
noncredit learning experiences but may also include credit coursework.
