As homeschoolers, we have much more freedom in designing and choosing our studies and the routes of learning we take. Things are always changing in our homeschool based on the needs and learning habits of each of our children. This year, we started a new journey in our homeschool by exploring Dual Credit at Home. I have been intrigued by all I have seen these fellow homeschoolers share on social media and in their email newsletter.
See, in our homeschool we like to make our own schedule, tailor resources to learning styles and go at our own pace. With the Dual Credit at Home intro course we have taken and all we have learned so far, we are loving this new addition. We started delving into this wonderful notebook of resources at the start of the semester.

What is Dual Credit at Home?
With the Dual Credit at Home Study Plans package, your child can earn both high school and college credits at the same time. Your student:
- Receives a suggested study plan
- Studies a subject + earns high school credit
- Takes an exam to earn college credit in that same subject
“Our Study Plans will guide your student through 13 college-level exams to satisfy both high school and college core requirements. These exams give students the opportunity to earn up to 51 college credits!” – Dual Credit at Home
Talk about freedom! Not only is there financial savings but time savings as well.

*These plans may also be used with the whole family. So, my other children will benefit as well.
Both my daughter and I have been reading the emails, plans, the wonderful binder full of info, and having ‘light bulb moments’. She and I have decided together – at least to start with – to take a slower approach and get our feet wet. In fact, in the How To Adapt Dual Credit at Home for Your Family email, that was suggested. Also, we just happen to be studying American History this year. So the first test in the Dual Credit schedule will match up well. We are homeschoolers – we can choose the pace and step out in confidence when we are ready.
We are still soaking this all in, figuring out our long range plans and getting excited about the future! Just like designing the learning in our homeschool, you can design your journey with Dual Credit at Home to meet the needs of your student.
