As a lifelong learner, I am excited about the possibilities and opportunities this will present to those who need a chance to learn a new skill, so they can get that next job or next promotion,” said T.D. Jakes. “I urge anyone who is looking to get ahead in their career to be one of the first to sign up.”
The entrepreneurship courses will begin later this month on July 25, while the digital media and church media courses begin on July 30, and the project management courses start Aug. 1.
