Western Governors University Announces Partnership With Kentucky Community Colleges

VERSAILLES, Ky. — A private accredited online university has announced a new partnership with The Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS) that allows Kentucky community college graduates to seamlessly transfer their coursework.

According to its website, Western Governors University (WGU) uses an online competency-based learning model as opposed to the traditional, cohort-based class model present at most universities.

“WGU has built very strong relationships with community college organizations and higher education institutions across the United States. Partnering with organizations such as KCTCS is one of the many examples of how we create pathways between talent and opportunity that will allow potential to thrive,” WGU Central Region Vice President Alison Bell said. “We are very excited about this announcement and look forward to welcoming KCTCS graduates to WGU.”
