COURSE CODES

Understanding the course codes

All course codes are established by the school division and linked to Manitoba Education course codes. The first letters in the course
code represent an abbreviation of the course name. French Immersion courses will begin with an “X”.

The first numerical character indicates the course level (“1” for Grade 9; “2” for Grade 10; “3” for Grade 11, and “4” for Grade 12)

Second numerical character indicates:
0 Developed or approved by the Province of Manitoba for 1 credit
1 Developed by school or division and registered with Manitoba Education as School Initiated Credit (SIC)
2 Developed by external authorities, and in the case of dual-credit, a post-secondary institution or Advanced Placement (AP)
5 Developed or approved by the Province of Manitoba for 0.5 credit

The third character and final character (following the numbers) indicate:
A Avancé - Honours courses in French Immersion
E English as an Additional Language courses
F Foundation compulsory courses - required for graduation
G General education experiences for all students
H Honours course in English instruction
S Specialized learning experiences focused on specific skill and content
M Modified curriculum to take into consideration the capabilities of students with special needs
I Individualized educational experiences intended for students with significant cognitive needs
U University based courses that provide dual-credit between the high school and the University of Winnipeg
