Garrett College, like most higher education institutions, continues to adopt and implement best practices to ensure, to the extent possible, the health and safety of our students, our instructors, and our staff. We remain hopeful that we will be able to offer face-to- face courses, but will shift, as needed, to ensure everyone’s health and safety. We were fortunate to receive grant funding in the fall, which we used to purchase technology that will allow us to provide a variety of remote learning options. Please be patient with us as we navigate through the semester and strive to make the best decisions possible. We look forward to seeing all of our students – whether in person or virtually! Sincerely, Julie Yoder, Dean of Continuing Education & Workforce Development OUR MISSION | The Continuing Education and Workforce Development Division will enhance the mission of Garrett College by providing lifelong learning through community education/personal interest courses, basic skills development and career training, and professional development/customized training solutions.

  • Student Transfer in New England Are We Making Progress?
    Student Transfer in New England Are We Making Progress? Higher education students in the U.S. have been transferring at record levels. More than two-thirds who earn bachelor’s degrees from four-year institutions today have changed colleges at least once according to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center. However, the U.S. Department of Education reported in 2015 that on average, students who transfer lose 13 credits already earned and paid for. The impact of lost credit on students is enormous and contributes to students taking an average of five or more years to earn a four-year degree. Four in ten students in New England transfer at least once on their path to completing a bachelor’s degree. Student transfer is a vital part of the New England higher education landscape, and the New England Board of Higher Education (NEBHE) has been studying and reporting on changes in state transfer pol- icy over recent years. In 2014 NEBHE published On the Move: Supporting Student Transfer followed by New England Fast Facts: Student Transfer. The latter report used National Student Clearinghouse data to shed light on recent student transfer patterns in New England to help policymakers and practi- tioners envision and implement plans to better serve them in the future. New England Transfer Policies Since the 2014 On the Move report, NEBHE wanted to determine if states in the region were making progress in developing policies and practices that: • Facilitate transfer • Mitigate credit loss • Offer students who began at a community college and transferred to a four-year institution the opportunity to earn an associate degree through reverse transfer To gather intelligence on these issues and coalesce on progress, NEBHE held a convening on Next Emily Decatur Generation Transfer, in January 2018.

The Art of Three in Conversation and Song, featuring Billy Cobham, Kenny Barron and Ron Carter on Wednesday July 25 at 7:30 p.m., will bring together jazz pioneers in an intimate evening of performance and conversation around the artists’ work and history of jazz as they have experienced firsthand. Billy Cobham and The Crosswinds Project, on Saturday, July 28 at 7:30 p.m., will bring Billy Cobham’s acclaimed national touring Crosswinds Project Band in a re-visitation and celebration of Cobham’s album Crosswinds released in 1974.

Today, after decades of musical exploration, the versatile Cobham continues to evolve and innovate as a master drummer, percussionist, composer, producer, educator and clinician. In The Art of Three in Conversation and Song, Cobham will be joined by Ron Carter and Kenny Barron—reuniting these living legends on the stage for the first time in many years.

    Course Equivalency Guide between Iowa State University 515 294-5836 www.iastate.edu and Elgin Community College 847 697-1000 www.elgin.edu Based on the Elgin Community College 2020-2021 General Catalog and the 2020-2021 Iowa State University Bulletin How to Read the Course Equivalency Guide The Course Equivalency Guide lists the courses offered at the community college and how each of those corresponds to courses offered at Iowa State University. Regardless of how a course is listed on the equivalency guide, it is important to keep in mind that the individual colleges or departments determine how each course will apply toward your degree program at Iowa State University. Please note that equivalencies are date-specific and dependent on when the course was taken. • If there is a course that is directly equivalent to the community college course, the Iowa State department and course number is listed. • If there is not a course that is directly equivalent to the community college course, the department name is still listed with either a 1T** or 2T**. This shows that it does transfer as either a freshman (1T**) or a sophomore (2T**) level course. The student's major department at Iowa State will apply these credits to the student's degree as they see fit. • A "z" after MATH 100 indicates that the course will transfer to Iowa State, but will not be used toward graduation from Iowa State University. • CAREER/TECH means that the course is part of a career/technical program. A maximum of sixteen semester hours of career/technical credit can be transferred to Iowa State.
