Employers benefit from education partnerships with College of Notre Dame of Maryland, as their employees quickly earn their degrees.

Professional training

College of Notre Dame brings undergraduate or graduate courses to the work site, creating an interactive classroom environment for faculty and students. The College can offer credit or non-credit courses, bringing one course, a certificate program or an entire degree program.

Faculty bridge academic experience and “real world” challenges with an unusual blend of experience and expertise. Small classes build camaraderie as students engage in collaborative and experiential learning.

Streamlined education

Using the Accelerated College format, students take one course at a time, meeting with classmates once a week for four hours at the same day and time throughout the program. The students move through the program as a cohort, completing the program in an average of three years.

Of the employees who begin College of Notre Dame’s Accelerated College, 71 percent finish within three years.
