Effective December, 2011, the Office of Continuing Education is no longer accepting new enrollments for the Nonprofit Leadership Program. They are exploring options with HandsOn Central Ohio so that students who are currently enrolled and have taken the Nonprofit Survey 101 course may complete the program. One alternative being explored would involve transitioning some of the coursework to the John Glenn School of Public Affairs. They have discussed this proposal with students currently enrolled at a meeting on December 19 and are developing a proposal that they hope to share in January, 2012.
