BLOOMINGTON – Eight-week long classes at Ivy Tech Community College Bloomington begin on Oct. 15. Short-term, eight-week classes offer the same material as traditional 16-week courses but have been reformatted so that students can complete courses in half the time.
“This shift to offering more short-term courses is driven by the College’s focus on student success. By offering eight-week courses, students can take fewer classes at a time, while still making progress toward completing their degrees and certifications,” said Larry Swafford, Ph.D., vice chancellor of academic affairs. “By Spring Semester 2019, Ivy Tech Bloomington plans to offer at least half of its courses in an eight-week format.”
On Oct. 15, students can begin eight-week classes both in-person and online in Accounting, Business Administration, General Studies, Four-year transfer programs, and many more.
