...students who want to take a few courses, but who don’t intend to earn a credential or transfer. These students, sometimes referred to as “skills builders” or “upskillers,” only take the few specific courses they need to gain new skills for employment or to advance in their careers. Skills builders commonly take courses that train students in specific work-related fieldsSo that sounds like a great thing that the kids are doing.
Yeah but then they’re not “non-completers” really.
They went and did what they intended to.
Wasn’t there a phrase for students like that once?
I have a BS and 2 associates degrees. I now take and facilitate OLLI classes. I have taken numerous classes at community college, primarily software without going for another degree.
