ACCESS Program

Access Program Logo

The ACCESS Program stands for the Alabama Connecting Classroom, Educators and Students Statewide program. It is and initiative by the Alabama Board of Education. This program provides high school students with a greater chance to take advantage of AP, or Advanced Placement, courses and other classes that they may not have access to otherwise.

According to the Alabama Board of Education, the ACCESS Program has six objectives. Two of which involve providing access to advanced diploma courses and advanced placement or dual enrollment. In my opinion, this is a great initiative put on by the state. Giving high school students the chance to gain college credits be for they actually go to college is a great idea. This program simply enhances students chances of utilizing these great opportunities to advance their education.
