Ivy Tech Community College Launches College for Working Adults

INDIANAPOLIS, IN - Ivy Tech Community College announced this week the launch of its College for Working Adults, a new academic program specifically designed to meet the unique needs of adult students who also maintain full-time jobs and responsibilities.

Ivy Tech’s College for Working Adults features sequential 8-week classes taught at scheduled dates and times for the duration of the program, making college a predictable part of students’ busy lives. Students will start and complete the program with the same group of peers, creating an environment of team work and support. Participants will complete the program and earn degrees in two years.  Additionally, Ivy Tech has developed orientation and textbook delivery services specifically for College for Working Adults participants.  Eligible students may apply financial aid to program costs.  

College for Working Adults’ classes will begin this fall at 16 Ivy Tech campuses throughout the state: Gary, Valparaiso, Michigan City, South Bend, Fort Wayne, Lafayette, Kokomo, Muncie, Terre Haute, Indianapolis, Richmond, Columbus, Lawrenceburg, Evansville, Sellersburg and Bloomington.  Four degrees will be available at the Richmond campus including accounting, business management, computer information systems and early childhood education.  Instruction will be delivered through a combination of traditional classroom settings and technology enhanced learning.   Anyone interested in enrolling should call Jeff Plasterer at 765-966-2656 Ext. 1212.  

Ivy Tech Community College is the state’s second largest public post-secondary institution with over 100,000 students enrolled annually.  Ivy Tech has 23 campuses throughout Indiana.  It serves as the state's engine of workforce development, offering affordable degree programs and training that are aligned with the needs of its community along with courses and programs that transfer to other colleges and universities in Indiana.  It is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.
