WARREN — Northern Pennsylvania Regional College (NPRC) will host a virtual information session from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Feb. 27 for anyone who may be thinking about applying to NPRC or registering for a workforce development opportunity.
Those interested in attending are encouraged to sign up on NPRC’s website at NPRCEvents.org.
Attendees will learn about the college’s history and mission, receive information and resources regarding tuition rates and how to pay for college, along with more details about NPRC’s offerings.
Assistant Director of Community Engagement Kelsey Angove said, “NPRC can be someone’s clear pathway towards chance at college, the step for a better life for themselves and their family, or a way to reinvent themselves in a new industry or trade. NPRC has something to offer almost anyone, no matter what stage of life they may be at. If you’re interested in completing a degree, earning credentials through a trade, exploring a passion through a community enrichment class, or are just curious about what we do, this is the perfect opportunity to learn about us.”
NPRC creates opportunities for those who may have never had the chance to sit in a college classroom before by only requiring a high school diploma or equivalent to apply. NPRC is a two-year, open admission college that offers associate degrees and workforce development training courses that guide students to prosperous careers and foster economic growth throughout the region.
Associate degrees available include business administration, criminal justice, early childhood education, liberal studies and social sciences. Workforce development programs include, but are not limited to, commercial driver’s license (CDL), emergency medical services (EMS), industrial maintenance basics, and supervision and leadership. Several of these programs are eligible for financial assistance through the local CareerLink®.
NPRC will also host information sessions June 18 and Sept. 24 at times to be determined. Contact NPRC’s student services team at info@rrcnpa.org for additional information.
