Des Moines Area Community College has completed a concurrent enrollment pilot program with Des Moines Public Schools, where over 50 students from North and Roosevelt High Schools earned postsecondary credits while attending DMACC classes through the Iowa Jobs for America’s Graduates (iJAG) program. The program will launch at all DMPS high schools next school year. Courses featured project-based learning concepts to help students develop employable skills such as professionalism, organization and communication. Select students were able to translate their learnings to job shadows and paid on-the-job training experiences with iJAG employer partners. To learn more, click here.
