“I am thrilled by the remarkable growth CEI has undergone since becoming a community college in 2017,” CEI President Rick Aman said in the release. “We take pride in our commitment to open enrollment, affordability, and the delivery of exceptional skills-based training.”
CEI also anticipates continued enrollment growth with the implementation of the Idaho LAUNCH program starting in the fall. Idaho LAUNCH is a program to distribute grants for higher education and career training for graduating Idaho seniors, the Idaho Press reported. The grants are up to $8,000 for tuition and fees at Idaho higher education institutions and eligible apprenticeships and job training programs for “in-demand careers.”
