Project Specifics

Vision for Project Kapi`olani Community College provides education and training for a wide range of health care workers within the state. Programs and courses are delivered to students in high schools, prior to program entry at the college, within the health career programs, and to the incumbent workforce. Delivery methods include both distance and traditional coursework at each of these four educational levels. However, learning support services are concentrated at the program level.
