Community Partnerships Colorado Mountain College reaches beyond its campuses to build partnerships with many K-12 school districts and other organizations in our region. For learners who need additional assistance, we offer GED courses and English literacy programs. Working with four-year institutions, Colorado Mountain College is also delivering teacher certification programs over our Interactive Video network. Through a transfer agreement, students can complete a four-year elementary teaching degree with bilingual specialization. Another partnership with Adams State College provides the opportunity for teachers to earn an endorsement or Master's degree in bilingual education.
Senior citizens benefit from tuition grants and programs tailored to their needs.
Many advanced high school students take Colorado Mountain College courses, allowing them to combine their first two years of college with the last two years of high school. Students in many occupational programs reach into their communities with service projects. The College, with many civic organizations and businesses, sponsors the First Ascent Leadership Camp at Timberline Campus in Leadville. During this event, young people learn vital leadership skills, building self-esteem through outdoor activities. Colorado Mountain College is a founding partner of Rural TeleCon, an international conference providing online resources to rural communities.
