94.3 the Wolf Country That'll Make You Howl!
Elizabethtown Community and Technical College has received grant funding to expand services at two satellite campuses.
According to a release from ECTC, the college recently was awarded a $1.3 million TRIO Student Support Services grant from the U.S. Department of Education which will be used to expand services at the ECTC Leitchfield and Springfield campuses.
ECTC says the grant will enable the college to hire a program director who will have a presence at both campuses. The grant will also cover hiring a tutor and an administrative assistant for both campuses. The college says the grant allows them to expand their reach to connect more students to services.
The goal of TRIO Student Support Services is to increase retention and graduation rates among participants. The release states: “TRIO SSS serves first-generation, low-income students. It provides individualized services such as one-on-one tutoring, guidance through the educational process, academic counseling, transfer assistance, visits to four-year universities, and more.”
