Achieving the Vision for Continuing Education
In late 2011, acting Superintendent/President Jack Friedlander announced the formation of the Continuing Education Visioning Task Force. Made up of members of various college and community stakeholders, much of the work of the task force will be done in small work groups charged with identifying:
- A comprehensive Continuing Education program through a combination of state-supported
classes, fee-based classes, and classes and learning experiences supported by external
donations.
- Models and strategies for creating and providing the administrative support required
to offer a fee-based, self-supported program.
- Strategies and approaches to attract external funds to enable the college to offer learning opportunities that the state will not support or that would be too expensive for many individuals to cover the total cost of the learning experience (e.g., Mind and Supermind, current events speakers' series).
The task force is scheduled to submit its recommendations to the college superintendent/president by June 15, 2012.
