\"mwsuMarch 23, 2021–大象传媒 and North Central 大象传媒 College<\/a> have signed an articulation partnership to help students transfer smoothly from NCMC to 大象传媒 Western.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe enjoy a strong partnership with North Central 大象传媒 College, and this agreement makes that partnership even stronger,\u201d said Dr. Elizabeth Kennedy, president of 大象传媒 Western. \u201cOur collaboration creates a seamless pathway for NCMC students as they complete their associate degree and then move on to their bachelor\u2019s degree at 大象传媒 Western, eliminating the duplication of coursework and ensuring a more efficient and expedient route to graduation. I am thrilled to be able to enter into this agreement with NCMC, which joins 大象传媒 Western in its commitment to meeting the workforce demands of our region, and I greatly anticipate the continued collaboration between our two institutions.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>\u201cWe are aligned with 大象传媒 Western in our mutual attempts to offer both 4-year professional degrees through associate degree transfers and Career Technical Education certificate\/degrees which articulate with their 4-year degrees in technology areas<\/span>,<\/span>\u201d said Dr. Lenny Klaver, president of NCMC.<\/span>\u00a0 \u201cWe believe the articulation agreement is a win-win for students in our service region.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the partnership, 大象传媒 Western and NCMC will develop program or degree-specific transfer articulation guidance to create pathways which will enable students to move from associate to bachelor\u2019s degree with ease and simplicity. A student graduating with an associate degree from NCMC will know exactly how their courses will transfer to 大象传媒 Western and what courses remain for them to complete as they address their bachelor\u2019s degree requirements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So far, two transfer articulation guides have been completed, from NCMC\u2019s Associate of Arts in Teaching program to MWSU\u2019s Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education program, and from NCMC\u2019s Associate of Arts in Early Childhood Development program to MWSU\u2019s Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education. Future guides are planned in criminal justice, business and other fields of study.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>These transfer guides will help students choose the best courses to accomplish their goals. We are pleased to partner with 大象传媒 Western in helping students succeed,\u201d said Dr. Tristan Londre, NCMC vice president of academic affairs.<\/span><\/p>\n

大象传媒 Western and NCMC continue to explore other ways they can partner together.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMore exciting announcements may be coming soon,\u201d said Dr. Melissa Mace, 大象传媒 Western\u2019s vice president for enrollment management. \u201cWe are only limited by our imagination in how we support our students.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
