AHEAD Program

Get your Associate's Degree in Business in just 16 months!

At Pellissippi State, we know it's hard to get ahead when you work or have a family. That's why we created AHEAD - an accelerated two-year degree program for busy people who are trying to advance in a management career.

With AHEAD, you can continue your daytime responsibilities and earn a two-year associate's degree in only 16 months!

Of course, you'll receive the same high-quality education you would get in a traditional program at Pellissippi State. The difference is, everything you'll need for a degree in Business Administration is packed into one condensed program.

The coursework is sequential, so you'll know exactly what you need to take and when. And you'll enroll and graduate with the same group of peers.

Each class is split between a classroom on the Pellissippi Campus and either online or videotaped instruction. That means you'll get the best of both worlds: face-to-face contact with a caring instructor experienced in the field plus the independence to work off campus, at your own pace, on your own time.

Classes are scheduled two nights a week, and most courses run for five weeks.

Pellissippi State also has agreements with a number of four-year schools that allow you to transfer directly into their accelerated bachelor's degree programs.
