Bethany Launches New Adult Degree Completion Program!

The School of Distributed Learning at Bethany College introduced a degree completion program in the South Bay Area in March. The program allows working adults to return or enter college and study only one night a week. Groups, called cohorts, are put together and clusters of 15-20 students, who then study together throughout the entire program.

Dr. James Stewart, Associate Dean of Distributed Learning, explains that the Organizational Management major was the first program developed as it is a cutting edge area of Business highly sought after by students.

The program, known as "APPL", which stands for Accelerated Programs in Professional Leadership, will establish cohorts in the San Jose area in March, April, and May. Information Seminars are conducted regularly to provide interested people with all the information they need to evaluate the suitability of the program to their individual needs.

The School of Distributed Learning, providing non-traditional education for the College, is essentially a "college within a college". The idea is to provide full service to each student in ways that prioritize the needs of the student rather than the demands of the institution.

The schedule for these seminars is as follows:

Information Seminars

Please note that all Information Seminars are from 6pm - 7pm. The location varies from time to time. The next Seminars, will be May 4th and May 11th and will be at our San Jose classroom site located at 1101 S. Winchester Blvd.
