Why Spelman College Is Offering Online Certificates

Spelman College entered the worlds of online education, adult learning and upskilling Aug. 11 when it announced the creation of eSpelman. The new online program could be seen as a leap for Spelman, a 2,100-student historically Black liberal arts women's college dating back to 1881. The college, in Atlanta, touts itself as the leading producer of Black women earning doctorates in the science, technology, engineering and math fields.
