Randolph Community College’s Corporate and Continuing Education
Department has received funding from the State Employees Credit Union
Foundation for 10 Continuing Education scholarships for the 2013-2014
school year—five scholarships per semester at $750 each. The SECU
Foundation Continuing Education Scholarship Program is designed to
remove financial barriers for students seeking to gain new and/or
upgrade current job-related skills. Preference will be given to students
with limited or no access to financial aid from other programs.
Regina Brewer, director of RCC’s Continuing Education program, said the
funds must be used for students enrolled in short-term training
programs that lead to a state-regulated or industry-recognized
credential, such as machining, maintenance mechanic, welding, HVAC, and
electrical. The funds may be used to pay registration fees, book costs,
certification fees, and for course supplies.
The
scholarship program is being administered through the Continuing
Education department in collaboration with the College’s Office of
Financial Aid and Veterans Affairs.
