Johnson College Continuing Education Program

# data[].attributes.body
Johnson College’s Continuing Education Program distinguishes itself from the College’s 2-year degree programs and certificate courses by providing its adult students the opportunity to improve their skills to stay ahead of the competition, learn new technologies, and advance in their current careers.

The Continuing Education courses, many taught by industry professionals, are utilized and recognized by industry partners because they’re developed in partnership with industry. Johnson College strategizes with and listens to its partners when creating the most effective hands-on continuing education curriculum and programs. Some courses are specifically customized toward industry partners’ workforce needs in reducing possible skills gaps and industry requirements.

Johnson College also assists individual students and industry partners in obtaining funding or grants so their continuing education courses are cost-effective.

Students continuing in their current jobs, obtain hands-on advanced training, new certifications, and unique skills to expand their careers while helping their companies grow. Students entering a new career have an opportunity, through newly acquired core skills, to excel in training and job placement when hired in the industry they’re passionate about. We train the workforce of northeastern Pennsylvania by immersing our continuing education, degree, and certificate-earning students in industry from day one.

Johnson College’s Continuing Education Program carries on the College’s long history of producing the most highly skilled technicians and technologists by providing flexible, real-world hands-on learning and a direct link to industry. Individuals explore new careers while industry partners strengthen their current workforce. We Work, so you succeed.

MUSEUM ADVENTURE WEEKS FOR KIDS ARE BACK!

Museum Adventure Weeks center on the creative exploration of the Everhart Museum collection and the Nay Aug Park environment. Each week, campers are invited to experience a new topic or theme that uses both art and science in its hands-on, multi-modal approach to learning. Instructors will use visual thinking strategies and inquiry-based learning to talk about art and art objects from around the globe.

This summer, the Everhart will offer two unique options for young museum explorers, Adventures in the Museum and Adventures at Home.

ONLINE LEARNING MODULES: the Science of COVID-19

# data[].attributes.body
AUDIENCE: Educators in PA
Penn State Center for Science and the Schools (CSATS) is excited to announce that we have developed online learning modules, The Science of COVID-19, along with experts in virology, epidemiology, agent-based modeling, and public health preparedness. This introductory course allows secondary students to learn about COVID-19 through the lenses of three distinct scientific fields while engaging in the practices of scientists to understand how researchers investigate and take action against a new virus. The course is made up of three self-paced modules: 1) virology, 2) epidemiology, and 3) public health preparedness. Teachers can determine which aspects of the course are most appropriate for their students. The modules do not need to be completed in order and the use of the course is flexible. When teachers register, they gain access to resources that they can modify to support the use of this course in their classrooms.
