CENTER FOR BUSINESS
AND INDUSTRY TRAINING

(CBIT)

The Center for Business and Industry Training (CBIT) assists employers by arranging education and training classes for groups of employees. Training can be provided to address skill and education needs in areas such as computer hardware and software training, supervision and management development, and written and oral communications. (Contact us for a complete list of training topics.) All training can be customized to address needs that are unique to your company or organization. For your convenience we will arrange for training to be delivered at your site or in one of the many laboratories or classrooms available on the campus.

Here are just a few ways in which CBIT can provide education and training for your employees:

• Contract Training – Classes can be arranged for groups of ten or more employees.
• Custom-Designed Training – For unique areas of need, training can be custom-designed to address the processes and procedures of your organization.
• Lunch and Learn or College After Hours – Arrangements can be made for college courses to be offered at your site. You need 12 or more employees and an appropriate instructional facilities. (Participants must meet all of the academic criteria set forward by the college and the college’s accrediting association.)
• Reserved Seating in Pre-Scheduled Continuing Education Classes – For three to nine employees we will reserve a block of seats in continuing education classes that are scheduled each semester.
• Consortium Training—For groups of three to seven employees we will try to identify other organizations with a similar group size, so that the groups would have moderate size learning group. This would also allow the cost for training to be share by the two groups.
  
• Bell Atlantic Interactive Distance Learning Laboratory – Distance learning classes that originate from around the country can be arranged and delivered in the college’s distance learning classroom.
• Portfolio Development – Employees can earn college credit for prior learning and experience by successfully completing a document portfolio.
