The Center for Community Education

The transformation of people and communities in the city requires the development and training of community leaders and partners outside the formality of semester-long college courses. The Center provides certificate programs, seminars and community lectures designed to develop sustainable community resources—human, financial, organizational—and to develop churches, ministries, community organizations and schools into transformative institutions. 

Enon/Eastern Institute of Entrepreneurship

The Enon-Eastern Institute of Entrepreneurship (E3I) has been created to educate aspiring entrepreneurs and to improve the skill set of current business owners. Visiting professionals and the E3I faculty teach practical methods that business owners can implement immediately.

E3I is an innovative and dynamic environment that enhances learning through exposure to other participants from a wide variety of backgrounds. E3I believes that bringing likeminded business owners together develops and deepens their professional network and encourages mutually beneficial relationships with other entrepreneurs.

Community Lectures

Each year, the Center partners with a local church or community organization to present a guest lecturer of national prominence in their field of expertise, who addresses issues of importance to the city and its members. Past lecturers have included Dr. Howard Gardner, author of Multiple Intelligences, Patricia Smith, Esq, Director of the Neighborhood Transformation Initiative and Dr. Michael Eric Dyson, author, social analyst, cultural critic and scholar of urban popular culture.
