Access pass available to Maywood students

Students at the Maywood Park Campus will be able to purchase a 10-week Access Pass for technology resources for fall term.

For $89, students will gain unlimited access to more than 1,400 training videos, updated courses each week with no additional fee, and instructors’ exercise file to aid in learning computer as well as workplace skills, from the location of their choice.

“This is a new program. It was designed for students who need access to technology and want to learn at their own pace,” said Kimberly Murray, community education coordinator at the Maywood Park Campus.

In addition, Wi-Fi access, workbooks, library services and instructional assistance will be included in the fee. The Maywood Park Campus will be open seven days a week, including evenings, to offer the above.

The Access Pass will be an extension of the Community Skills Center that assists members of the community in gaining or polishing their workplace skills. The course most often desired is a computer course that teaches fundamental skills. Advanced computer courses are offered also.

“It enables students to learn bits and pieces of different software applications. It gives students the freedom to pick and choose what they really want to learn,” said Murray.

The MHCC Maywood Park Campus is located at 10100 NE Prescott St., Portland.
