Three Rivers CC Seeks To Help Displaced Business Students

From Three Rivers Community College: Upon hearing of the unfortunate close of Ridley-Lowell Business & Technical Institute, Three Rivers Community College would like Ridley students to know that Three Rivers offers many ways for them to complete their education. Advisors are available now to meet with students, discuss the programs that Three Rivers has to offer and how they may be able to transition and continue their studies.

Three Rivers is offering two transition workshops for Ridley students to help them transition to Three Rivers. Workshops will be held from noon to 1 pm and from 6 to 7 pm on Wednesday, April 18. Students should register in advance at www.timecenter.com/trcc.

There are several noncredit Workforce courses and programs that could work for Ridley-Lowell students. Programs include a Medical Administrative Assistant Program, Medical Billing & Coding Program, Dental Assisting Program, and Veterinary Assisting Program. Students can start as soon as this summer with classes such as: Certified Nurse Aide, Medical Coding, Understanding Health Insurance, Pharmacy Technician and Medical Math. Some non-credit courses lead into certificate programs. To discuss Workforce courses and enrollment, call 860-215-9028 or visit www.threerivers.edu/workforce.

In addition, starting this fall Three Rivers is introducing a new associate degree -- Certified Clinical Medical Assistant. Graduates of this program will be eligible to sit for the exam as a Certified Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA). For more information on credit courses and degree programs, call 860-215-9016 or visit www.threerivers.edu.
