| Healthcare Education : HCC Equivalency Guide
The Healthcare Core Courses (HCC) provide a basic and universal foundation
of healthcare concepts for all healthcare students. Allied health and
nursing students take these courses together, thus building early in their
career the opportunity to work in healthcare teams. These courses may
be taken in their entirety, or as individual (.5 credit) modules. To determine
whether or not the HCC courses are required for a particular healthcare
program, or whether they are a Prerequisite or Corequisite course, please
contact the Program Advisor at the college you plan to attend.
