HELPING NCDPS–DACJJ EMPLOYEES EARN AN UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE FASTER, AT A SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED COST.Purdue Global is proud to partner with the North Carolina Department of Public Safety by providing higher education programs. These programs will help expand career opportunities and provide personal enrichment for those in the North Carolina Division of Adult Corrections and Juvenile Justice (DACJJ) family. Purdue Global is part of the respected Purdue University system. The University strives to meet the needs of students who juggle their studies with career and family obligations.

HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:• Online Flexibility: Degree programs are offered online,

removing scheduling issues and commuting time.

• Special Tuition Rates and Fee Waivers: Undergraduate tuition is reduced 46% per credit and technology fees are waived. Graduate program tuition is reduced 20% per credit.*

• Textbooks Included: Books and course materials for undergraduate programs are provided at no cost.

• Credit for Your Training: Completion of the Basic Corrections Officer Training Course or General Instructor Training could put you closer to a degree.

• Credit for Experience: We offer a course that assists you in developing a personal portfolio of the skills and learning you have gained outside the traditional classroom to be reviewed for additional credit.†

IMPORTANT INFORMATION—PLEASE READ For comprehensive consumer and gainful employment information, visit Info.PurdueGlobal.edu.

Purdue Global cannot guarantee employment or career advancement. Local, state, and federal correctional/probation officer jobs and law enforcement positions may require additional training or education beyond the associate’s level. Some positions require a 4-year bachelor’s degree and/or additional state-approved higher education beyond the Purdue Global degree. This program was not designed to meet any specific state’s requirements, and Purdue Global makes no representations or warranties as to whether the degree or any individual courses meet such requirements. Refer to the University Catalog for additional information.

* Eligible family members include spouses, domestic partners, parents, siblings, and children. Must be an employee or member of an organization with which Purdue University Global has an educational relationship. Contact an Admissions Advisor for details. May not be combined with Purdue Global scholarships, grants, military tuition reductions, tuition vouchers, or other discounts or Tuition Cap or ExcelTrack™ pricing. Savings will vary compared to students eligible for Purdue Global Tuition Cap pricing. Note: veterans should enroll using the DACJJ employee rate (46% reduction) and not the veteran tuition rate (38% reduction). Active military members should enroll using the current military members tuition rate (55% reduction) and not the DACJJ employee rate (46% reduction). Your Advisor will help ensure you obtain the lowest tuition rate for which you are eligible.

† Purdue Global does not guarantee transferability of credit from any of these sources. See the University Catalog for Prior Learning Assessment policy.

‡ Classes count toward a degree if satisfactorily completed. No credits are earned if the student withdraws during the introductory period (3 weeks for new qualifying undergraduate students), which begins day one of the first term.

# Concord Law School is part of Purdue University Global, which is regionally accredited. Concord Law School is registered as a Distance Learning Law School with the Committee of Bar Examiners of the State Bar of California. Registration with the Committee permits Concord JD graduates, who meet the regulatory requirements, to apply for admission to the State Bar of California. Study at, or graduation from, Concord does not qualify graduates to take the bar examination or satisfy the requirements for admission to practice law in jurisdictions other than California upon graduation. A student seeking admission to practice law in a jurisdiction other than California may need additional experience/education to qualify for that state’s bar. Students should contact the admitting authority in that jurisdiction for information regarding the legal education requirement for admission to the practice of law prior to enrollment at Concord. Concord is not on the list of schools approved by the American Bar Association. The ABA Standards for the Approval of Law Schools currently do not allow for JD programs that are delivered fully or substantially online.
