This Week's Program: Paul Nussbaum, the Director of Education for ECPI College of Technology described his program to us. ECPI is solely a technical college. Students can earn a bachelor's degree in 2.5 years due to the small classroom setting and unique structure. Students take classes in five week chunks, two classes at a time. ECPI is looking for business partners who would be willing to offer scholarships to their employees and families. All students have to complete non-paid internships and ECPI could use businesses to help connect them. They are also in need of guest speakers and instructors for classes.
Upcoming Programs:
Be sure to check the website calendar for future events and the Member area for future speaker and greeter assignments.
