in Santa Fe College being recognized as one

of the Top Ten Colleges in America by the

Aspen Institute. We at SF look forward to

continuing our mutual efforts in expanding

career opportunities for students and

contributing to the economic well-being in

our communities.

Partnerships are the foundation for our

shared success in educating students to

meet community workforce demands. We

at Santa Fe College deeply value these

partnerships, both public and private, that

give our students the opportunity to pursue

their dreams for careers while fulfilling

the diverse needs of a growing regional

economy.

Our partners are our lifelines to new ideas,

new trends and new technologies. The

personal collaboration between professors in

the classroom and professionals who serve

on SF’s Advisory Committees allows us to

keep abreast of the latest advances in the

field and tailor our curriculum to the changing

job market. It is important to you, us and

A PERFECT FITCANDACE RAULERSON

“The whole group is like one big family. Everyone is extremely helpful and they really want you to succeed at your job and provide ample opportunities for you to futher your education by offering in-house training.”

-Candace Raulerson, Santa Fe College student and Mindtree intern

Page 19: Santa Fe College 2013 Partnership Book

The skills she learned in the program are right in line

with the expertise needed at Mindtree. Raulerson’s

goal for the next five years is to continue her

education toward a bachelor’s degree while working

her way up at Mindtree, a place she says already

feels like home.

“The whole group is like one big family. Everyone is

extremely helpful and they really want you to succeed

at your job and provide ample opportunities for you to

further your education by offering in-house training.”

With all that working, studying and training, she barely

has time for much else, but in her spare time (when

she has any) Raulerson enjoys – what else? – Online

gaming. Of course.

assignments that will change from day to day.

“I would most definitely recommend the ITE program,

especially to students who like working on the

back-end of websites. What the program teaches

is how to make the website function and to make it

interactive with the user,” Raulerson said.

Who knew a few computer classes in SF’s Dual

Enrollment program – long before the Internet – could

lead to a career in website programming? Candace

Raulerson’s education path came full circle at Santa

Fe College this year with an A.S. degree and an

internship at Mindtree.

“I’ve been interested in computers ever since I can

remember. I took a few programming classes during

my senior year of high school with Dual Enrollment at

Santa Fe and just fell in love with it,” Raulerson said.

“Then when the Internet came along I learned how

to make websites for family and friends. It was just

really fun to me so I decided it was time to take my

education further so I could make a career out of it

instead of just a pastime.”

At 43, Raulerson is not your typical college student.

Studying Internet Services Technology (IST), she

will graduate with her AS degree in August. In the

meantime, she is finishing up her program as a Santa

Fe Ambassador for Mindtree, which will lead to an

internship position with the company this summer.

In 2012, Mindtree, a global information technology

solutions company, opened their United States

Delivery Center (USDC) in Gainesville near the

innovation Hub, creating over 400 new jobs locally

and becoming a community partner to Santa Fe

College.

Raulerson describes her job at Mindtree as “a

perfect fit” with her degree in IST and the Information

Technology Education (ITE) program at SF. Raulerson

looks forward to her internship position as a Software

Engineer trainee, working on a variety of different

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION

Page 21: Santa Fe College 2013 Partnership Book

INFORMATION Information Technology (IT) is one of the fastest growing career fields in the world today.

IT skills are essential in all industries and are necessary for many different job roles.

Graphic design, multimedia production, Web design and development, networks design

and development — information technologies are everywhere and all around us today, and

they are pointing in the direction of the world of the future.

With small classes and qualified instructors, ITE gives students the support they need to

succeed. Students gain more than skills; they gain the confidence they need to excel in an

exciting career.

Student Maid in 2009 and brought the business to the

Incubator that same year. After just 14 months in the

Incubator, Hadeed was ready to move Student Maid to

a new location and continue its success. She spent the

next four years fashioning her cleaning and concierge

business from a local startup into a full-service industry

leader.

“[Student Maid] is one of our most interesting and

successful incubating companies,” said Dug Jones,

Assistant Vice President of Economic Development at

the CIED. “It’s a great example of what we aspire to

accomplish with our program.”

Jones noted the qualities that help a company flourish

while incubating are the same ones that continue to make

it prosperous once a business leaves the Incubator. A

combination of an innovative idea, persistence and a

strong network seem to be the keys to victory.

Student Maid is the perfect example. Hadeed grew

her business from a one-person operation in 2009,

to a company that now boasts 350 employees during

peak seasons, has served over 2,000 residents in the

Gainesville area and was recognized as the Gainesville

Area Chamber of Commerce’s “Leading Women’s

Enterprise” in 2010 and 2011. And, the company recently

opened a second location, in Pensacola, on May 1.

Student Maid exclusively hires students with GPAs of 3.5

or higher who demonstrate a knack for customer service

and a willingness to go the extra mile. In Gainesville,

Student Maid hires students from the University of

Florida, Santa Fe College and local high schools and will

employ students from the University of West Florida and

Pensacola State College at its new location.

Hadeed was looking to expand, and Pensacola’s

sizeable student population and supportive Chamber of

Commerce made it a top-choice for the new site.

“Our plan has always been to expand to other cities, and

we’re so excited about this opportunity in Pensacola.”

Hadeed said. “It couldn’t be a more ideal situation or a

more perfect time.”

Hadeed is also the founder of Gainesville’s very own

speaker conference, FreshSpark. Similar to the TEDx

conference format, FreshSpark will bring 12 renowned

speakers to the Santa Fe College Fine Arts Hall for

its “reThink: Success” exhibition. Speakers such as

entrepreneur and author Simon Sinek, and Byron Young,

owner of Corda Roys who was recently featured on the

hit ABC television show Shark Tank, will share insider tips

on business success in quick, high-energy presentations.

Hadeed’s success is one to be celebrated, but she is

humble about her upward mobility and thankful for the

local support she has received.

“I want to thank the Gainesville community for helping

us grow and for believing in us. We are so lucky to have

such a fantastic support system and couldn’t be more

excited to grow the Student Maid brand,” Hadeed said.

PROGRAMSBACCALAUREATE

The Bachelor of Applied Science program in Clinical Laboratory Science prepares students to enter the workforce as Clinical Laboratory Technologists or Medical Technologists. In this profession, graduates are responsible for developing, performing and evaluating laboratory tests used in medical diagnostics and clinical research. As part of their baccalaureate program, graduates typically focus their health-related clinical capstone on a specialty area in which they will eventually seek employment such as chemistry, hematology or microbiology.

Clinical Laboratory Science degree courses are taught primarily at the college’s Charles R. and Nancy V. Perry Emerging Technologies Center in Alachua. This BAS program also requires extensive clinical laboratory rotations, so students should expect to spend time in local hospitals and clinical sites in the senior year.

The Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education includes classes covering preschool curriculum, social and emotional development, classroom management, and developmentally appropriate practices. For practical experience, students utilize SF’s Little School, an on-campus preschool program for children ages 14 months to 5 years, including two prekindergarten classes.

Bachelor’s degree programs like SF’s help elevate the status of early childhood education by raising the pay scale of preschool teachers and retaining more students hoping to earn higher degrees. In the past, teachers wanting to earn bachelor’s degrees in early childhood education often had to switch focuses because more advanced degrees simply were not offered in the field.

The Bachelor of Applied Science program in Health Services Administration is an online program that prepares students to enter the workforce as Medical/Health Services managers. In this profession, graduates are responsible for planning, directing, coordinating and supervising the delivery of health care. They may be specialists managing specific clinical departments or generalists managing a facility or system. Their work as managers involves a complex array of factors impacting today’s health care environment: technology, regulations, accreditation, innovation in treatment and delivery, system finance and insurance reimbursement.

Courses in the Health Services Administration degree are taught almost entirely online with the exception of a final capstone internship class that is taught in the field.

HEALTH SERVICES ADMINISTRATION

The Bachelor of Science in Nursing Completion Program is a limited access program designed for registered nurses who are graduates of an accredited associate of science in nursing degree program (ASN). Upper division coursework will consist of 30 credit hours addressing topics related to leadership and management, nursing theory, research, culture, pharmacology, community health, and population-based nursing across the lifespan. The coursework will be completed mainly online in asynchronous instruction. There will be one course with a lab experience and two courses with local clinical experiences. All BSN degree seeking students are required to complete the same basic requirements as traditional baccalaureate students, including general education courses and demonstration of foreign language competence. The Bachelor of Science in Nursing Completion Program adheres to the state’s common course prerequisites. Due to the specialized nature of the BSN Completion Program, individuals are required to consult with an academic advisor when applying for admission. The program is planning an initial site visit for accreditation.

The Bachelor of Applied Science in Supervision and Organizational Management (SOM) program is the only one of its kind in Alachua or Bradford counties. The SOM program prepares students for management and supervisory positions in a variety of professions. The program provides a career and educational pathway for students who have earned an Associate of Science degree in a professional and technical discipline. The SOM program also provides an excellent opportunity for individuals who have already entered the workforce but are interested in acquiring business management, leadership and supervisory skills. The program builds directly on SF’s AS and AA degrees in business administration, and indirectly on technical degrees in other areas. Students are exposed to the theory and practice of business management including finance, economics, law, human resource management and organizational behavior. The degree culminates with a capstone course where students put into practice the theories and principles they have studied in the program.

NOTICE OF EQUAL ACCESS/EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AND NONDISCRIMINATION

Santa Fe College is committed to an environment that embraces diversity, respects the rights of all individuals, is open and accessible, and is free of harassment and discrimination based on, but not limited to, ethnicity, race, creed, color, religion, age, disability, sex, marital status, national origin, political opinions or affiliations, veteran status, and genetic information. The College does not discriminate in its programs and activities, including employment and admissions.

In particular, Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (20 U.S.C. § 1681) is an all-encompassing federal law that prohibits discrimination based on the sex of students, employees, and third parties when appropriate, of educational institutions which receive federal financial assistance. Sexual harassment of students, which includes acts of sexual violence, is a form of sex discrimination prohibited by Title IX. Santa Fe College complies with all aspects of this and other federal and state laws regarding non-discrimination.

Title II of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 protects applicants and employees from discrimination based on genetic information in hiring, promotion, discharge, pay, fringe benefits, job training, classification, referral, and other aspects of employment. GINA also restricts employers’ acquisition of genetic information and strictly limits disclosure of genetic information. Genetic information includes information about genetic tests of applicants, employees, or their family members; the manifestation of diseases or disorders in family members (family medical history); and requests for or receipt of genetic services by applicants, employees, or their family members.

Anyone with questions about compliance or a complaint regarding harassment or discrimination, including sexual harassment and sexual violence as a violation of Title IX, should contact the College’s Equal Access/Equal Opportunity Coordinator using the following contact information:

Lela Frye, Equal Access/Equal Opportunity Coordinator3000 NW 83rd Street, R-Annex, Room 105, Gainesville, Florida 32606(352) [email protected]
