They understand the importance of learning from faculty who share those passions, practice in their field of study, and understand the skills needed to succeed.”

With his career experience as a prosecutor, private practice attorney, Magistrate and acting judge, Paralegal Studies program director, Judge Christopher Greene, Esq., is a prime example of this. “As a faculty member, I understand the importance of preparing our students for engaging careers and am honored to bring my career/ life experience to recognize and ignite a career passion in my students. We give our students more than classroom experience; we give them life experience,” says Judge Green.

Girard asserts that Stautzenberger is unwavering in our focus to serve students, employers, and the community by offering exceptional quality, affordable education and community involvement. Girard points to the colleges' American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) accredited Veterinary Technology program as evidence to support his claim. “Our Veterinary Technology program is one of the most respected programs in Northeast Ohio. Our co-directors are not only passionate about the program that they lead but each is outstandingly credentialed as a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. Our faculty know what skills clinics, hospitals, and zoos are looking for in veterinary technicians!”

Stautzenberger also excels in a true measure of education quality- student /stakeholder satisfaction. “Our most recent graduate satisfaction survey reflected an average satisfaction rate of 5.0 on a scale of 1-5 or 100%” noted Career Services Officer, Karen Roknich.* “Our students stay with us because they are VERY satisfied with their education! Last year, we retained nearly 80% of our entire student body**. While numbers never tell the whole story, this is one number we invite any other institution in northeast Ohio to beat!” contends Dean of Instruction, Sharon Fain.
