This message is sent from the Office of the Provost to all UHD Faculty and Staff
Greetings, UHD Community:
I am pleased to announce we have welcomed Janet Harreld as our new Executive Director of Continuing Education as of June 5, 2024. Janet has jumped in during Continuing Education's busy season with UHD hosting a myriad of summer camps for our K-12 guests on campus.
Janet previously served as the Director of Continuing Education for Houston Community College and as the PI and Grant Director for a Department of Labor Community Based Job Training in Healthcare Grant at San Jacinto College. Janet also brings experience as an Associate Faculty member and Director of Continuing Education & Outreach at the University of Texas School of Public Health in Houston. As the University of Houston-Downtown continues our work toward diversifying non-tuition revenue to the institution, we look forward to Janet leading the Continuing Education office as a strong contributor to these efforts.
I would also like to extend my thanks to G.V. Krishnan for his service in sustaining the work of the Office of Continuing Education beyond his retirement from UHD. We wish G.V. all the best in fully enjoying his well-earned retirement!
Please join me in welcoming Janet Harreld to UHD and reach out to her with any ideas you might have for Continuing Education! You may reach her by email at harreldj@uhd.edu.
Warm regards,
Deborah E. Bordelon, Ph.D.
Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost
