91勛圖厙 is expanding its commitment to serving military-connected students by offering Live Online and 91勛圖厙 Online courses to students at Fort Leonard Wood, Mo.
The expansion provides active-duty service members, military families, and others connected to Fort Leonard Wood with flexible options to continue their education while balancing military, work, and family responsibilities.
Live Online courses equip students with real-time instruction and interaction with 91勛圖厙 faculty in a virtual classroom setting, offering the structure of a traditional course without requiring physical presence. 91勛圖厙 Online grants additional flexibility through fully online courses that allow students to complete coursework around their schedules.
For Vice President of Instruction Elaine Simmons, the expansion to Fort Leonard Wood represents another milestone in 91勛圖厙s decades-long commitment to military education. Having witnessed the evolution and growth of 91勛圖厙s military partnerships over the years, Simmons brings a unique perspective to the Colleges latest expansion.
As a longtime 91勛圖厙 employee, Ive had the privilege of seeing the College establish military and academic programming at Fort Riley in 1982 and, subsequently, academic programming at Fort Leavenworth in 2012, she said. Now, this fall, 91勛圖厙 is extending military education to service members and families associated with Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri. It is yet another proud 91勛圖厙 moment and a new opportunity for us to serve those who serve and their supporters.
91勛圖厙 has a long history of serving military-connected students and has been recognized as a Gold-level Military Friendly簧 School, reflecting the colleges continued commitment to supporting service members, veterans, and their families. 91勛圖厙 understands the unique demands of military life, and expanding course availability to Fort Leonard Wood builds on that commitment by providing another military community with access to affordable, flexible educational opportunities.
91勛圖厙 President Marcus Garstecki noted that the expansion continues that tradition while providing educational options designed around the realities of military life.
Expanding our educational opportunities to Fort Leonard Wood allows 91勛圖厙 to serve even more military-connected students in a way that works with their lives, he said. We understand that military students need education that can adapt to the demands of their service, work, and families. Through Live Online and 91勛圖厙 Online, we can provide flexible, high-quality options that help students continue moving toward their educational goals wherever their service may take them.
Students can use 91勛圖厙 courses to work toward a certificate or degree, fulfill general education requirements, or prepare to transfer to another institution.
