| Really, who is Dr. Terence Candell? He is a young man with a huge heart and a lot of guts, taking on the responsibility of educating our youth. "At Candell's College Preparatory Academy, Inc. (CCPA), my colleagues and I began small and have developed excellent teaching techniques and team-oriented strategies. In Berkeley/Oakland Unified School Districts, I was a Teacher and Acting Principal. As the teacher, my students received the highest test scores in the districts every year. As the Acting Principal, I was able to affect changes that brought about a better learning atmosphere. Prior to CCPA, I was with Heald Colleges. My students received numerous acknowledgements for their achievements. Immediately before Heald, I was the Director of Marketing for Menlo College (PSP) Program. I increased the enrollment by 400%. For three years, I was the Director of the CET Business College. My admissions team was number 1 in the country. Our placements were unparalleled, as well. Meanwhile, the curriculum, which I helped to develop, was state compliant and received a six-year accreditation from WASC. Now, I am the Director of Candell University! As a student, be prepared for the most unconventional blast you have ever had! Candell University of Oakland is a Professional Studies Program (PSP). It is structured around the schedules of working adults and offers a comprehensive liberal arts curriculum. Its seminar-type setting is conducive to teaching and learning, not just getting a grade. Show me that you know the material! Live it for awhile! As former teacher, Director and founder of several schools: EBCC Adult School, ACALC, CORE at Seneca, I have the skills and expertise necessary to serve my community. I have developed much curriculum and compliance over the years, experience that I hope will ensure success for the school and for the students. So far, 100% of our graduates have been accepted to college! I pray that God will continue to grant me the energy to make a difference in the lives of our students. . . the ability to share the knowledge he has given me. . . and the endurance to do whatever it takes to educate. This continues to be my prayer for all of our teachers. . . for our students." Thank you. Sincerely, Dr. Terence Cerene Candell, Ph.D. |
