Editor's Notes
- #3: New Horizons was incorporated in 1982
- #4: This is why MIWorks is here and why New Horizons is here – to be a part of the solution
- #5: Where does New Horizons fit into the world of career training. What is our niche and why would people choose us.
- #6: There is some hope
- #7: In the areas where there is job growth – New Horizons is on the front lines
- #8: Why do employers care about getting people with certifications. The last stat relates specifically to health care.A Certcities.com survey asked how people’s certifications worked with their degrees. It showed that 0% of people with certifications and degrees value their degree more than their certification – 11% valued their certification more than their degree – 33% did not have a degree - and 56% said that the combination of both a degree and a certification were the best combination.
- #9: This is still how the majority of our classes are delivered.
- #10: Provides new opportunities for students to learn at their own pace, but with “guard rails” provided by the onsite mentors and help facilitate the learning. Engaging video content and hands on labs.
- #11: First of our distance learning options that are provided via the web or mobile devices.
- #12: Nearly all of our traditional classrooms also offer connected options so that students can take them when they like. Additionally, most are recorded so that students can go back and review again at a later time.The E-learning libraries offer additional distance learning content and interactive labs.
- #14: Personal Success Workshop designed to help people develop a personal plan for motivation / accountability / and success once they get a new job.Green IT specifically speaks to the jobs our state is funding and attractingSales technology certificate really endorses someone as being up to date with how technology can improve their skills
- #15: The partnership triad between student / MIWorks / New Horizons. All of us need to work together.
