Sinclair Appoints Manager for Preble County Learning Center
Dayton, OH- Sinclair Community College announced today the appointment of Janet Schmitt as Learning Center Manager of the Preble County Learning Center.

Schmitt has been employed at Sinclair for nearly four years. Most recently, she served as a program advisor for the Seniors-to-Sophomores program. In her new role, Schmitt will oversee all operations at the new Preble County Learning Center.

“Janet’s experience working with high school students and serving as a program coordinator for Sinclair Academic Resource Centers have well prepared her for this role,” said Interim Dean of the Learning Centers Rebecca Butler. “She was a natural choice for this position.”

The Preble County Learning Center is set to open this fall with classes starting September 9. The center is adjacent to the Preble County YMCA in Eaton and was created in partnership with the Preble County Youth Foundation.

“I am excited to take on this new challenge,” said Schmitt. “We have already been well received by the Preble County community, and I believe that the new learning center will fill a real need for its residents.”

Registration for fall classes is going on now. The Preble County Learning Center is holding information sessions on June 25 and again on July 23 and 30 at the Preble County District Library on 450 S. Barron Street in Eaton. Potential students can apply, take placement testing and get financial aid information at these sessions.
