Hill College is committed
to the educational and cultural development of
citizens throughout its service area. The Continuing
Education Program/Workforce Development
Program is a major expression of the college's
orientation toward our mission and public service.
The specific goals of the program are to:
- Provide opportunities for
people of all ages to enrich their cultural lives and pursue their
personal interests;
- Provide workforce education and training to adults
to assist them in acquiring or upgrading vocational-technical
skills leading to employment or job advancement;
- Sponsor in-service training opportunities for area
employers and professionals to satisfy organizational
needs and educational requirements for licensing or credentialing
and
- Provide other instruction as required to meet community
needs.
These programs typically consist
of non-credit experiences such as short courses, seminars,
workshops, and lectures. They can be custom tailored for
the convenience of the student or an employee and may
be offered at a variety of locations. Enrollment is open
to all the interested individuals regardless of education
background; however, a few certification courses have
additional admission requirements, these include certain
specialized courses such as in Certified Nurse Aide, Certified
Medication Aide, Massage Therapy and Real Estate MCE.
Each continuing education/workforce development course
normally requires payment of a small fee which is determined
by the length and nature of the learning activity. |
