Looking Ahead to Level III Classes

CHN’s Training and Technology Center is pleased to announce an exciting new partnership with Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C).  CHN is now offering an accredited Level III computer class that is designed and taught by Tri-C instructors at the Training Center.  As a part of the Level III program, students should apply for financial aid for this 14-week class.  Assistance is available to for students needing help to apply for financial aid. 

 

This gateway class opens a welcoming door to a community college education for students who have successfully advanced through Level I and Level II classes. Mark Campbell is currently enrolled in the Level III, and it could not have come at a better time.  He is about to start a job that requires the level of computer skills that are offered at this course. “Learning more about spreadsheets and how to apply them helped me to secure my promotion. The environment is great, and instructors are extremely helpful.”

 

Since its conception, CHN has planned for a connection to mainstream education for students engaged in adult education at the Training Center, particularly through Cleveland’s excellent community college system..  The partnership with Tri-C is especially gratifying because it is completing a pathway to college education for students who would not otherwise pursue the opportunity.  Students like Denise Dotson are well prepared and now feel very confident about continuing her education at the college level.  “ This class is the push I needed to pursue a higher education.” 

 

Winter registration for 2005 is underway for Level III classes.  For more information on this class as well as other computer classes, please contact the CHN’s Community Training and Technology Center at 216.881.8443.  Register Now
