Project Forward

Project Forward is a Vocational Skills Education & Keys to Independent Living program at Cape Cod Community College. Project Forward provides students with learning differences the opportunity to gain and maintain vocational skills, keys to independent living, and the path to social success at Cape Cod Community College.

Project Forward recognizes that traditional college instruction, even with tutorial support, may be unmanageable for students. At the same time, these students may wish to further their vocational skills and have the same social opportunities that other students have at the college level. Project Forward provides a transitional skills training experience within its own unique curriculum for these students provided by the instructors and facilities of the college. While at the college, Project Forward students also have the opportunity to join clubs and participate in extra-curricular activities. Project Forward is a non-credit, certificate program. Students may opt to coordinate their course of study at Project Forward with courses in developmental education (to improve basic reading, writing, and math skills) and/or areas of special interest at Cape Cod Community College. Students and parents need to be aware that enrollment in credit-earning college courses is an entirely separate process from Project Forward.
