USING THE TABLE:  Determine the number of weeks in the term. Determine training time by reading across the credit hour line to the number of weeks per term column. For example, 12 credits taken in a Fall or Spring 15 week term is full-time.  A 6 credit course taken in an 8-week summer term is also full-time but the same 6 credit course taken in a 12-week summer term is only 3/4 time.

HACC Fall and Spring Terms are both 15 weeks. Summer terms are 12, 8, and 6 weeks in length. Be sure to use the correct term length when figuring training time.  Click Training Time Equivalency Table Printer Version for a PDF of the above table.
