SERVICES FOR STUDENTS WITH 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

classes to ensure services are in place.

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.

FAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS & PRIVACY ACT

OF 1974 (FERPA)

FERPA, commonly known as the Buckley Amendment, was issued by

the Department of Health, Education and Welfare in the 1976 Federal

Register. The regulations were transferred to the Department of

Education when it was established and codified in Part 99 of Title 34 of

the Code of Federal Regulations.

The purpose of FERPA is to afford certain rights to students concerning

their educational records. FERPA applies to all schools that receive

funding under most programs administered by the Secretary of

Education. Most post-secondary institutions, both public and private,

generally receive such funding and must, therefore, comply with FERPA.

FERPA applies to all education records maintained by a post-secondary

institution, or by any party acting for the institution, which are directly

related to the student. These include but are not limited to assessment

test scores, academic standing, rosters, class schedule, or any information

that would make the student’s identification easily traceable. FCC may

release directory information, which includes student’s name, dates of

attendance, and enrollment status–see the FCC catalog for a complete

list. Students wishing to restrict directory information must contact the

Welcome Center (in writing) with their request. Contact the Welcome

Center for additional information.
