Presentation Transcript

  1. Montgomery Community College Ribbon of Hope funds enabled Montgomery Community College’s GED2Degree program to offer its services to more citizens in Montgomery County. The program targets those without a high school diploma and provides personal coaching, mentoring, and career goal development using second-year Human Services students at Montgomery Community College as peer counselors. Prior to the GED2Degree program expansion, program staff conducted a focus group with community leaders who identified barriers to program participation, such as childcare and transportation needs, lack of information/communication skills, and financial barriers. Solutions that were identified included increasing recruitment efforts, marketing the program to other educational institutions, and providing classes in a variety of locations. The program served 425 students who were enrolled in the Basic Skills program; 70 students completed the Basic Skills program and 60 students enrolled in career training.
