    25RFI0002_DualEnrollment_121224.docx
    The Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) is seeking information for potential partnerships to establish a dual enrollment program for its 41 high schools serving over 13,000 students globally. Currently, DoDEA lacks a systemic dual enrollment opportunity, as students must individually arrange such scenarios. This Request for Information (RFI) aims to gather input from educational institutions to develop a comprehensive program that could issue post-secondary credits for DoDEA coursework and enhance college and career exploration. Interested parties should detail their experiences with military-connected families, how they would support DoDEA's educational offerings, and provide specifics on the transferability of credits and potential costs. The RFI includes questions about articulation agreements, the accreditation of programs, and availability of financial support for students. Responses are not to be treated as binding but will assist DoDEA in its planning process. The deadline for submissions is set for February 14, 2025, with further details available via provided communications. This initiative reflects DoDEA’s commitment to improving educational opportunities for military families and ensuring rigorous academic standards across its curriculum.
