Ivy Tech Community College is offering a chance to start classes in March.

As Ivy Tech Columbus continues to offer courses in an eight-week format, the college now offers five opportunities per year for area residents to advance their education and careers. The next start date for courses is March 16.

The eight-week options help students manage juggling school, life and work and can lead to graduating sooner. Ivy Tech Columbus offers more than 40 programs, including business, health care, information technology, agriculture, advanced manufacturing and aviation.

Ivy Tech works for students looking to earn an associate degree, build up their credentials with certifications and certificates or take a more affordable route to a bachelor’s degree.

Prospective students interested in starting March 16 may enroll through the Express Enrollment Center at Ivy Tech Columbus Poling Hall, 4475 Central Ave., Columbus. No appointment is necessary.
