Randolph Community College Criminal Justice Certificate to be Offered in Asheboro and Archdale

In conjunction with the Career and College Promise program, Randolph Community College has added a Criminal Justice Technology certificate beginning this fall, which also will be available to students at the Archdale Center through videoconferencing.
         
The 12-hour certificate was added to RCC’s curriculum at the request of the Asheboro and Randolph County school systems, to give high school students in the Career and College Promise program the opportunity to graduate with a high school diploma and a Criminal Justice certificate from RCC. But the certificate option is open to all students who have an interest in the criminal justice field.
           
Four courses are needed for the certificate, according to Neil Weatherly, Criminal Justice department head. They are Introduction to Criminal Justice, Criminology, Juvenile Justice, and Criminal Law. Two classes will be offered in the fall and two in the spring. The classes will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:30-4 p.m. this fall at both the Asheboro Campus and the Archdale Center.
           
Randolph Community College will be registering new students by invitation only July 23 through August. 3. Late registration will be held on Wednesday, Aug. 8, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Fall semester classes begin Wednesday, Aug. 15.
