Tri-C Hosts ‘Adult Student Visit Night’ in Westlake

Nov. 6 Event at Corporate College West Offers Tips to Nontraditional Students

No matter your age, it is never too late to return to the classroom.

Learn about the academic and career training opportunities available at Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C®) during an Adult Student Visit Night on Monday, Nov. 6, at Corporate College® West in Westlake.

The free event offers a one-stop shop for nontraditional students interested in pursuing a degree or professional certification to improve their career outlook and future.

“Continuing education is critical with today’s changing economy and employment realities,” said Karen Dickerson, director of enrollment at Tri-C’s Westshore Campus in Westlake. “We want people to know how the College can help them meet their goals.”

The two-hour Adult Student Visit Night begins at 5:30 p.m. with a resource fair and building tours. A formal program offering guidance and tips on coming back to school is scheduled for 6:30 p.m.

The event will highlight:

• More than 200 degree and certificate programs offered at the College
• Flexible course schedules designed to fit around job and family commitments
• Career and academic support services offered to Tri-C students

A peer panel of current adult learners at the College will also be at the event to share their experiences. Nearly one out of four Tri-C students are age 30 or older.
