TWU expands non-credit
course options
1/04/07
DENTON —
In response to overwhelming interest in online non-credit
and career training courses, Texas Woman’s University
has expanded its non-credit course offerings to accommodate
what are considered “hot trend” areas.
Job seekers may
receive training in areas such as business, design, health
care, languages, skilled trades and more by taking non-credit
online courses offered at TWU. The university also offers
certification programs in medical transcription and as an
administrative medical specialist, both considered “hot
trend” medical fields.
“The e-learning
movement — a segment of continuing education that has
only scratched the surface of potential students — has
taken hold, particularly in higher education through outreach
and continuing education programs,” said Stephen Pense,
TWU program coordinator for continuing education.
Courses are offered
through TWU via Gatlin Education Services (GES), the largest
provider of web-based, instructor-supported training to colleges
and universities. GES open-enrollment programs are designed
to provide the skills necessary to acquire professional-caliber
positions for many in-demand occupations.
