Students who enrolled in Dual Credit Entrepreneurship will receive credits for 2 courses; 4 credits from Oak Bay High School/BC Ministry of Education (Entrepreneurship 12) and 4 credits from Camosun College (BUS 280 Entrepreneurship).  As some of the outcome for these two courses crossover and dovetail, it is imperative for students to complete both in order to receive credits.  This dual credit course is appropriate for students going into Business or Fine Arts.

There is an application process.   NOTE: Students who wish to register for a dual credit course will need to meet with a Careers advisor for the application package, and will need to meet with an Academic Counselor to ensure their career choice aligns with the dual credit courses transition pathway. Documentation will need to be provided in the application outlining that the dual credit course is required for the career that student wishes to pursue.

Course Fee: Camosun College registration fee (TBA. In 2017, the fee was $40.20)
