Program Details

The Jetter School of Professional Studies includes MVNU's IGNITE Program. The IGNITE program, an integrated two-year postsecondary residential program for students with intellectual disabilities, provides opportunities for inclusive academic, vocational, residential, spiritual, and social learning experiences. Students who complete the requirements of the IGNITE program, including a selected career pathway in Arts and Communication, Human Services, Health Science, or Business and Administrative Services, earn a certificate in Applied Studies. The program incorporates the skills and education to allow students to live more independently, maintain meaningful employment, and value lifelong learning. Students in the IGNITE Program contribute their own diverse experiences and strengths to the MVNU community. This is a non-credit bearing program.
