The ACI program has been preparing to focus on establishing offerings for our students with hands-on opportunities to engage with non-profit organizations and assist in solving real-world problems through their course work. Thanks to generous funding from a Provident Bank Foundation Signature Grant award, students will have the potential to engage in unique projects that organizations need help with. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to Dr. Daniel Fidalgo Tomé at dtome@tesu.edu or explore our website www.tesu.edu/aci to see what kind of projects you might be interested in working with.
 
Over the past few months, the Academic Community Impact Program has been working to engage members in the community, working closely with the Center for Learning and Technology and the Heavin School to introduce our first course – SOS 204 Academic Community Impact - Theory, Methods, and Practice. This course will be a foundational, introductory course for students to take if they are interested engaging in community-based learning.
