Through a cooperative agreement with Warren Tech (the career and technical high school for Jefferson County Public Schools), Red Rocks Community College students pursuing certain career and technical college degrees/certificates may take courses (on a space-available basis) at Warren Tech (WT), which is adjacent to the RRCC campus.
You must have either graduated from high school, received a GED, or attained the age of 21. You pay RRCC tuition and Warren Tech program fees and your coursework is recorded on your RRCC transcript.
Classes follow the Warren Tech/Jeffco Public Schools' calendar. Deadlines and class start and end dates differ from those of RRCC. Warren Tech classes are conducted on a block schedule. The morning classes run Monday–Friday from 7:30–10:30 a.m. and the afternoon classes run Monday–Thursday from 12:00–3:45 p.m.
