Corporate Services

The Center’s Department of Corporate Services provides workforce development assistance and customized training for corporate clients throughout the college’s service area. Through this department, a highly talented team of staff faculty, external consultants and industry advisors have been brought together to leverage their expertise and resources in order to advance the region’s most important asset, its human capital. To serve the region’s highest demand occupations, the Center has cultivated strong partnerships with companies specializing in the petrochemical, maritime and healthcare industries; however, the Center also serves the retail, finance, warehouse/ distribution and hospitality sectors, as well as works to meet the professional development needs of those working within school districts and non-profit organizations.

Workforce/Industrial Training

The Center’s non-credit classes are designed to fulfill specific workforce training needs for individuals interested in developing a skill to be prepared for the high-demand, high-skill and high-paying jobs of today. These classes provide training for a career, including preparation for industry certification where appropriate. Students will master a workforce skill without taking entrance exams or enrolling in college credit courses. Programs vary in length and are offered in a non-traditional format with daytime, evening and weekend options. Programs offered are based on our local industries’ immediate need and therefore may vary from semester to semester.

FOUNDATION™ Certified Training Program

Lee College is home to one of eight FOUNDATION™ Certified Training Programs (FCTP) worldwide. FCTP means that your fieldbus training is taught at a Certified Training Site, by a Certified Instructor, using Certified Curriculum. Through the FCTP program training sites, curriculum, and instructors are all audited to ensure they meet program requirements. Certified training centers are required to maintain multiple FOUNDATION fieldbus hosts and devices onsite in order to demonstrate competence with fieldbus technology. They must also demonstrate to auditors that their course material adheres to set instructional standards.

FCTP ensures that you are working with someone possessing a strong knowledge of Foundation technology principles, a consistent understanding of fieldbus fundamentals and a proven ability to implement fieldbus-based control systems. Beginning automation students are able to identify colleges, universities and other facilities offering a certified Foundation educational curriculum. After graduating, they will be able to present official FCTP certificates to potential employers. Existing automation professionals completing certified courses can expand their job skills and employment value within their companies.

Fire Science

Fire Science is an increasingly complex profession that is called upon to deliver a myriad of diverse services. Individuals must receive quality training and meet required state standards in order to improve community safety, preparedness, and job performance. Our program helps students acquire the knowledge, skills, and abilities to provide workplace competencies, and safely perform the critical and essential duties assigned.

The City of Baytown Fire Department has partnered with Lee College Community Education to utilize the Baytown Fire Training Facility to offer high-quality emergency response training, instruction to firefighters, and emergency response and safety personnel in fire prevention, suppression, control, and safety.

Through Community Education students will get the educational framework needed to begin a career or move ahead in the challenging career of fire services. As a certified training facility through the Texas Commission on Fire Protection (TCFP) we provide training designed to prepare individuals seeking to advance and become certified. Our program offers low-cost, convenient, online/hybrid courses. All training meets the TCFP standards, qualifications, and curriculum.

Healthcare Training

Paraprofessionals in the healthcare industry assist doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other medical professionals in providing patient care and related services in settings such as hospitals, pharmacies, medical labs, health clinics, schools, physician’s offices, nursing care facilities, and patient homes. They serve an important role in the healthcare field as they often work directly with patients, but may also assist with administrative duties and record keeping. They help patients feel well-cared for and perform routine tasks such as drawing blood, bathing patients, filling prescriptions, measuring and recording temperatures, blood pressure, and other vital signs. Typically, students enrolled in these courses complete their training within only a few months and can increase their employability by obtaining a certification in their field of study. Some graduates choose to go straight into the workforce, while others continue on in pursuit of a degree in nursing or an allied health field, such as dental hygiene.

We currently offer the following courses, several of which have an online option.

  • Certified Nurse Aide
  • Clinical Medical Assistant
  • Dental Assisting
  • Dialysis Technician
  • EKG Technician
  • Medical Administrative Assistant
  • Pharmacy Technician
  • Phlebotomy Technician
  • Veterinary Assistant

Logistics, Warehouse, and Distributions

The Manufacturing Skill Standards Council (MSSC) Certified Logistics Associate-Certified Logistics Technician (CLA/CLT) covers core competency areas defined by MSSC’s skills standards for higher skilled, frontline material handling workers in factories, warehouses, distribution centers and transporters. The CLA is a prerequisite for CLT. Individuals are assessed for two credentials and students who achieve both certifications may be eligible to apply for 3 hours of college credit toward the Associate of Applied Degree in Logistics.

Each course delivered through the program corresponds to a major competency area. The MSSC CLA/CLT Training Program consists of two online MSSC courses, with classroom facilitation by an MSSC Certified Instructor. Successful completion of the CLA/CLT Training Program will be as indicated by documentation that the participant passed the MSSC Certified Logistics Associate Online Assessment and the MSSC Certified Logistics Technician Online Assessment.

NCCER Core Training

The National Craft Assessment and Certification Program (NCACP) Core Curriculum, presented as the Introduction to Industrial Crafts & Trades, is a prerequisite to all other Level 1 craft curriculum. Its modules cover topics such as Basic Safety, Communication Skills, and Introduction to Construction Drawings.

Completing this curriculum gives the trainee the basic skills needed to continue education in any craft area he or she chooses. NCCER offers a complete series of entry- and journey-level written assessments as part of its National Craft Assessment and Certification Program (NCACP).

These assessments evaluate the knowledge of an individual in a specific craft area. All assessments are based upon the NCCER Curriculum and have been developed in conjunction with industry Subject Matter Experts.

Career Pilot

Flying for a career or just for fun, our career pilot program is a great way to start. Lee College in partnership with Flying Tigers offers individually tailored flight and ground instruction for students that are interested in pursuing an interest in aviation whether professional or personally. Our program is taught by qualified and experience instructors who will help students achieve their aviation goals. Our program meets the standards of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) flight hours for private pilot certification.

Community Education

Lee College offers more than 500 courses designed to provide non-credit learning opportunities for the public and community. Classes are intended to address the changing needs of the community whether vocational or recreational and may be as short as one session or may continue for a full semester. Courses begin throughout the year and are conducted at a variety of times and locations. Although a few programs have eligibility requirements, Community Education offerings are open to most interested adults regardless of educational background or eligibility for admission to college credit programs. While courses do not apply toward a degree, community education units (CEUs) are available for most workforce courses.

Continuous registration is available weekdays in the Center for Workforce and Community Development. Because these programs are self-supporting, course costs are dependent upon materials and instructor fees.

Community Education offerings can generally be categorized in these areas:

  • Career Training
  • Online Education
  • Computer Technology
  • Linked Classes
  • Personal Enrichment
  • Recreation and Fitness
  • Adult Education
  • Senior Adult and Travel
  • Kids at College

Career Training

Career Training courses and programs offer professional development opportunities for individuals of all ages in their efforts to develop personally or professionally. Our courses are offered in a traditional classroom setting as well as online. They afford students the opportunity to prepare for a career, upgrade current job-related skills, or learn a new skill to enhance their quality of life.

Continuing Education Unit (CEU)

Many professions and state licenses require community education units (CEUs) by the license holders prior to relicensure. One CEU is 10 contact hours of successful participation/completion in an organized continuing education experience under responsible sponsorship, capable direction and qualified instruction. CEUs are not substituted for college credit hours, but rather are a means of reporting continuing education achievements. Transcripts listing CEU credits satisfactorily completed are available on request. CEUs are recognized internationally as a measure of substantial professional education and training.

Online Learning

Lee College in partnership with a variety of Educational Online Instruction Centers offers over 300 highly interactive online learning courses and programs from Creating Web Pages to Accounting Fundamentals, Speed Spanish to Grant Writing-and everything in between. Our course offerings are designed to enhance your life, expand your knowledge, as well as provide professional skills required for many in-demand occupations. The affordability and flexibility of our online courses make it easy for students to begin at anytime and anywhere to achieve their desired goals whether personal or professional.

Documentation of Online Attendance (Faculty)

In a distance education context, documenting that a student has logged into an online class is not sufficient, by itself, to demonstrate academic attendance by the student. A school must demonstrate that a student participated in class or was otherwise engaged in an academically related activity, such as by contributing to an online discussion or initiating contact with a faculty member to ask a course-related question…-FSA Handbook 2017-18, Volume 5, p.61.

In order to comply with this federal requirement, Lee College Distance Education offers the following process for documenting attendance when students are enrolled in distance education courses:

Documentation that a student has logged into an online course is not sufficient to demonstrate academic attendance by the student.  To show academic attendance, the student must complete some type of “academically related” activity in the the course.  Academically related activity is demonstrated by participating in an online discussion forum related to the content in the course or initiating contact with the instructor to ask a question about content in the course (see below for additional examples).  This participation must occur no later than the college’s official published census date.

If the instructor determines a student has not logged in and participated in an academically related activity as described above, prior to the census date, the student has not attended the class.  Therefore, the instructor should without exception leave the student’s name unchecked on the census roster and that student will be administratively dropped by Admissions and Records (no form completion required).

Beyond the census date, an instructor MAY submit a drop request to Admissions and Records, if a student does not complete an academically-related activity as scheduled by the instructor, during a ten calendar day period in a sixteen week semester or the equivalent in a shorter session.  The faculty member has the option to use the ten-day minimum calendar period or MAY determine the number of days appropriate as aligned with  the current attendance policy in a face-to-face class of three sessions or three hours.  If a student is dropped, a “W” will be recorded on the student’s transcript.  Faculty will indicate their attendance policy for an online, hybrid, or face-to-face class in each course syllabus.  

Academically related activities include, but are not limited to:

  • physically attending a class where there is an opportunity for direct interaction between the instructor and students;
  • submitting an academic assignment;
  • taking an exam, an interactive tutorial or computer-assisted instruction;
  • attending a study group that is assigned by the school;
  • participating in an online discussion about academic matters or initiating contact with a faculty member to ask a question about the academic subject studied in the course

Academically related activities do NOT include activities where a student may be present, but not academically engages, such as:

  • logging into an online class without active participation or
  • participating in academic counseling or advisement

Online Attendance and Participation (Student Expectations)

In a distance education context, documenting that a student has logged into an online class is not sufficient, by itself, to demonstrate academic attendance by the student.  A school must demonstrate that a student participated in class or was otherwise engaged in an academically related activity, such as by contributing to an online discussion or initiating contact with a faculty member to ask a course-related question..-FSA Handbook 2017-18, Volume 5, p. 61.

Expectations of Students

Students enrolled in distance education courses at Lee College are expected to maintain ongoing course engagement in order to uphold positive academic standing with the college. In an online environment, “attendance” is more than just logging into a course, or the Learning Management System (LMS). Online attendance is measured by your academic engagement with the course content, course tools, course instructor, and with other students in the course. The following is strongly recommended:

First Week of Class

All Lee College online courses open on the first day of the term unless the course is a late-start or second eight week course, then the course will open the first day of the beginning of those scheduled courses.  All Lee College online students are expected to login to the LMS (Blackboard) and access online courses during the first week of their classes.  Students must engage in an academically related activity prior to the official census date.

Throughout the Term

As the term progresses, all Lee College students are expected to maintain an ongoing online presence in their online courses by participating in course related activities.  This may include, but is not limited to reading announcements, taking exams online, participating in group work, posting to discussion forums, submitting assignments and carrying out the requirements set forth by the instructor.

It is a good practice to login to online courses several times a week to stay informed of news, announcements, grades, assignments, and other important course information.

Federal Student Aid and Online Attendance

Federal regulations require that online students establish attendance/participation in coursework each term to be eligible for federal financial aid.  Lee College verifies student attendance in accordance with this regulation.

In a distance education context, logging into an online class is not sufficient, by itself, to demonstrate attendance by the student.  Students must establish a record of participation in academically related activities in order to comply with this requirement.

Academically related activities include, but are not limited to:

  • physically attending a class where there is an opportunity for direct interaction between the instructor and students;
  • submitting an academic assignment;
  • taking an exam, an interactive tutorial or computer-assisted instruction;
  • attending a study group that is assigned by the school;
  • participating in an online discussion about academic matters or 
  • initiating contact with a faculty member to ask a question about the academic subject studied in the course

Academically related activities do NOT include activities where a student may be present, but not academically engaged, such as:

  • logging into an online class without active participation or
  • participating in academic counseling or advisement

Students who have not established attendance/participation in online courses may have their federal financial aid eligibility adjusted.

Computer Technology

Computer technology courses offer hands-on training and practices so students will gain real-world experiences for today’s ever-expanding world of technology. Our courses and programs help all students (beginners, intermediate and advanced) achieve the computer concentration and proficiency desired.

Linked Classes

Linked Classes are academic/credit classes in which Community Education students may register, with the instructor’s permission. Enrollment is limited and is on a space available basis. Students are expected to do all the required work, take exams and receive a grade of either Pass or Fail. No college credit hours are earned. Linked Classes start and end with the credit class schedule. NO LATE REGISTRATION once credit classes begin. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Personal Enrichment/Recreation & Fitness

Personal enrichment courses provide adults with opportunities to enhance the quality of their lives through vocational activities. Courses are tailored to meet the expressed needs of the community and are based upon the philosophy that adults continue to develop intellectually, socially, and aesthetically throughout their lives. Course selections include personal development, arts and crafts, cooking, music, languages, physical fitness, and recreation.

Adult Education Program

Adult education courses assist adults in acquiring basic skills and are offered as a public service. Areas of study include English as a Second Language (ESL), Adult Basic Education (ABE), and Adult Secondary Education (ASE). English as a Second Language (ESL) is for adults whose primary language is not English. Adult Basic Education (ABE) is for those adults requiring basic skills in reading, writing, and math on the first through eighth grade levels. Adult Secondary Education (ASE), formerly GED, courses are for those who did not receive a high school diploma and need assistance preparing to take the test to earn a certificate of high school equivalency. Classes in each area are regularly scheduled throughout the year. For information about class schedules and times, call the Adult Learning Center at 281.425.6536. Information about GED testing can be obtained from the Lee College Counseling Center at 281.425.6384.

Senior Adult and Travel

The Senior Adult Program offers bi-monthly (September through May) programs of interest to senior citizens in the colleges service communities. Day trips to cultural, historical, and fascinating attractions in Houston and the surrounding area are also offered. The program also co-sponsors the Annual Baytown Area Senior Olympics, holiday parties, and travel. Travel opportunities have included Italy, Alaska, Ireland, and Mexico. Participation in any of these activities is open to anyone over the age of 50.

Camp offerings include volleyball, basketball, tennis, computer technology, bowling, math, arts and crafts, Energy Venture, and career exploration, courses and workshops.

Community Services

Minority Access Committees

Since 1986, two volunteer organizations, the Hispanic and the Black Educational Access and Completion Committees (HEACC and BEACC), have worked under the leadership of Lee College to coordinate programs designed to encourage Hispanics, African-Americans, and other under-represented groups pursue an education.

These nationally-recognized committees are dedicated to providing services and activities that encourage educational access to anyone and conduct programs which preserve the heritage of each culture.

Events and programs have included bilingual college planning seminars, financial aid workshops, receptions honoring educators, graduation programs for Hispanic and African-American high school seniors, cooperative programs with other service area organizations and churches, fundraising and scholarship activities, elementary and junior high school tutoring and motivational programs, writing and poster contests, and observance and celebrations of respective holidays.

The building features the Lisa H. Urban Grand Foyer, the Melva Johnson Black Box Theatre, a 700-seat main theatre with proscenium stage, and various practice and performance halls.

About Lee College

In 1931, the Board of Trustees of the Goose Creek Independent School District identified the need to establish a junior college dedicated to providing educational opportunities to students who could otherwise not afford it. In 1934, they established the Lee Junior College of Goose Creek, Texas.

One hundred seventy-seven students enrolled in the inaugural session. By 1935, enrollment increased 33 percent, bringing the total student population to 236. That same year, the college held its first commencement exercises. Four women, Juanita Barrington (Mrs. David Holm), Byrtis Avey (Mrs. Elmer Brinkley), La Del Payne (Mrs. Barney Hillard), and Hudnall Spence (Mrs. Robert Southwick) received diplomas.

Recognizing the need for both, a strong academic curriculum and a comprehensive technical/vocational curriculum, the founders of the college established the Robert E. Lee Vocational Institute, Vocational Division of Lee Junior College. No college credit was given for work in the institute until 1941 and it did not become an integral part of the college until 1945, following a two-year period when no technical/vocational courses were offered.

By the mid-1940s, the administration and faculty of the college had become increasingly aware that the college needed its own governing board. In 1945, Walter Rundell, one of the original faculty members, became Dean of Lee College. Dean Rundell became the guiding force behind major developments for the two decades which followed.

In 1948, the college’s name was changed to Lee College. That same year, Lee College gained accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. The Association urged Lee College to develop a campus facility separate from the high school.

A successful bond election in 1949 led to the completion of the first two buildings - the Administration Building and the Gymnasium. The college moved to the new campus in 1951. Following the move to a separate campus, the growth of the college exceeded the expectations of its leaders and plans for additional buildings were accelerated. A Liberal Arts Building (now John Britt Hall) was added in 1958. By 1961, the campus had doubled in size. The Library was completed and the Gymnasium expanded in 1962. Construction of Moler Hall, Technical Vocational Building One, and Bonner Hall soon followed.

Under the leadership of Dean Rundell, Lee College successfully separated from the local public school district in 1965. On August 18, 1965, Lee College’s first Board of Regents, appointed by the public school board, and assumed governance of the College.

In 1966, the College, under the leadership of Dean Rundell and George Beto and in cooperation with the Texas Department of Corrections, began a program of courses in the state’s prison system. This program has grown from an initial enrollment of 182 students to a current enrollment of more than 1,000 students.

In 1966, Dr. Richard Strahan became the first full-time president of Lee College. Since the separation from the local public school district, the college has had nine presidents:

Dr. Strahan 1966 -1971
Dr. Raymond Cleveland 1971 - 1973
Dr. Jim Sturgeon 1973 - 1976
Dr. Robert Cloud 1976 - 1986
Dr. Vivian B. Blevins 1986 - 1991
Dr. Jackson N. Sasser 1992 - 2001
Dr. Martha M. Ellis 2002 - 2008
Dr. Michael Murphy 2009 - 2012
Dr. Dennis Brown 2012 - present

The Lee College Foundation was established in 1968. A non- profit dedicated to providing scholarship to deserving Lee College students, the Foundation has a current portfolio balance of more than $6.5 million and awards more than 200 scholarship each year. In 1969, Lee College, in cooperation with two Liberty County School districts, began offering courses in Liberty and Dayton.

In 1972, course offerings were expanded to include community education courses, as well as the senior adults program. These community-oriented, short-term courses have experienced a dramatic growth in popularity and are further evidence of the flexibility of the community college concept.

In 1986, Lee College partnered with San Jacinto Mall to offer programs and services to constituents outside the College’s service area. That same year, the Friends of Lee College, a group of volunteers dedicated to funding and supporting college educational programs, was also established. Under the leadership of John B. Tucker, this group raised more than $2 million to support programs and facilities improvements.

A focus on local economic development leads to the establishment of the Small Business Development Center in 1987. Additionally that year, Lee College began instituting new industrial programs and revising existing curriculums in an effort to respond to the needs of local industries.

In 1987 the college instituted an agreement with the University Of Texas School Of Nursing in Galveston, enabling registered nurses the opportunity to pursue a Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing.

A successful bond election in 1988 enabled the college to initiate a construction program featuring a new science building, a lecture hall, and major renovations to several campus facilities.

The 711 West Texas property, acquired in 1990, was renovated to house a performing and fine arts complex in addition to an allied health suite named the McNulty-Haddick Complex, in honor of Alma Haddick and her husband Luther.

In February 2000, local voters passed a $20 million bond election to build a new advanced technology center/library, a completely renovated gymnasium and newly constructed sports/wellness complex. Other renovations and additional parking were also included.

Today, more than 13,000 Lee College students are enrolled in academic, technical education and non-credit continuing education programs each semester. Basic education is available for those seeking to improve skills in reading, writing, mathematics, and language, in addition to a nationally-acclaimed honors curriculum.

Lee College Setting and Facilities

Lee College is a public community college, located in Baytown, Texas, approximately thirty miles east of Houston.

The buildings are complemented by lighted tennis courts, a sports complex including an arena and a multi-generational wellness center with racquet ball courts and a heated swimming pool, an Advanced Technology Center and Library, a Performing Arts Center (PAC), and Technical Education Center in McNair.

Rundell Hall houses the admissions office, counseling center, financial aid, and cashier,. A 25,000-square-foot newly renovated Student Center provides meeting space for student organizations and recreational and study areas, as well as a Cyber Café with gourmet coffee and Internet access.
