Edison State is Moving Forward and Taking Positive Steps Amid COVID Shutdowns
Edison State Community College is working in a variety of ways
throughout the community to provide as much assistance as possible
during this time of unprecedented emerging health crisis. Recognizing
there are many people at home, not working or not traveling to their
respective place of employment, Edison State has created an extra
spring term credit course schedule. The additional term was made
available in response to inquiries on the completion of certificates
and online classes. This “bonus” term will begin on March 30 and end on
May 23, providing a full 8-weeks of online instruction.
Chancellor Randy Gardner of the Ohio Department of Higher Education
praised Edison State for its assertive action. “In a most challenging
time, Edison State is finding innovative ways to support the community
and our workforce,” Gardner said. “President Larson and her team are
doing a tremendous job.”
The courses offered span healthcare, degree transfer, computer basics,
and general education. Edison State also has a variety of workplace
training courses available online with rolling start dates. The college
has taken additional steps to simplify and expedite enrollment in both
credit and non-credit courses.
Edison State President, Dr. Doreen Larson states, “It can get
depressing having a lot of extra time on one’s hands throughout this
health emergency. Our team at Edison State hunkered down and created
this extra term to give our community a positive way to use that
downtime. We also have a designated service team to work quickly and
individually with new students to make application and registration
stress-free.”
Students should also be aware that the summer semester for Edison State
begins on June 1, and they can register now for those courses as well.
