Monroe Community College: Producing the 21st Century Worker

The Bridge. (Narrowing the middle-skills deficit.) MCC proposes to develop a Middle Skills Bridge Program (MSBP) for students who are not academically ready for college-level course work. This will prepare career-oriented students to successfully participate in an MCC accelerated degree certificate program. Students will be recruited from often overlooked groups such as: veterans; dislocated workers; the underemployed; residents participating in various City of Rochester remedial programs; recent GED graduates and incumbent workers.

The Middle Skills Bridge Program will encourage participation from a more diverse group of students.
