A
Free College Class Through The Men’s Center?!
Are you thinking about taking college courses to help you change careers or
get a good/better job? Now, through Lakeland Community College, you have a
free, no-risk opportunity to “test drive” college while earning
credit toward a degree or certificate.
The Men’s Gateway
to College Project consists of three steps:
STEP 1 Assess
your career interests.
By taking John Holland’s
Self-Directed Search, find
out which occupations and
which educational opportunities
best match your personality
and interests.
STEP
2 Take a
free one-credit hour class (1.75
contact hours per week, for 8
weeks). You can choose from one
of the following:
• Essentials of Algebra (For those who need a math refresher)
• Orientation to College (Everything you need to know
about succeeding at college)
• Psychology of Effective Study (This is a fun one!)
• Introduction to Personal Computers (For the technically-hesitant)
STEP 3 This final step will help you:
• Define an academic program that is right for you
• Answer questions regarding your employability after completing that program
• Find out how much you can earn with a particular degree or certificate
