Continuing Education Program |Top of this page|

Background

The Continuing Education Program (CEP) started its activities in 1979/80 academic year. Since its inception the Program has been responding to the educational needs of those who could not get the opportunity for tertiary level education in the regular day-time program. The College, through its CEP coordinating office, has been trying its level best to provide educational opportunities for civil servants and employees of different non-governmental organizations (NGO) in its evening and kiremt in-service programs as long as they satisfy the admission requirements of the College. In general, CEP provides a golden opportunity for employees of governmental and non-governmental organizations and the private sector since it enables them to pursue part-time study without losing their jobs. It also offers a chance for high school graduates to prepare themselves for future employment opportunities.

Based on the demands of various governmental and non-governmental organizations and individuals, the CEP office has also started organizing Computer Training and other short-term courses at a Certificate level. At the moment there is a high demand for short-term courses as well as for Diploma and Degree programs which could be offered either in the Evening Program or during the summer vacation (Kiremt). In response to such demands, the College has started Kiremt in-service Diploma program in General Agriculture and in Home Science and Technology and Special Kirmet Degree Program in Plant Production and Dryland Farming. Moreover, the CEP office is making the necessary study and preparations to launch other programs for which there is a high demand.


Objectives

­ To provide higher education opportunity in the evening program for education seekers who could not get the chance in the regular program.
