There is an ever-increasing need for meaningful, life-long learning for many people; those preparing to go to college, to get their first job, to advance in their current job or change careers. The Community Education and Workforce Development Division, headed by Dr. Janet Wagner, Dean, provides opportunities for these students in traditional and non-traditional settings. Each department in Community Education and Workforce Development is designed for students of varying ages, professional experience and education levels to assist in learning new skills, or enhancing existing skills. Today’s competitive labor market demands that employees are up to date on the latest business equipment, computer software, management techniques, professional trends, market information, computer networking, customer service, and office operations. Through Columbus State’s Community Education and Workforce Development departments, students, business professionals, and new or first-time employees have the opportunity to learn many of these work-related skills at convenient times.
