Pierian Spring Academy Merges with Ringling College

Business

As announced a year ago, Pierian Spring Academy (PSA), a nonprofit lifelong learning institution in the region, has merged with Ringling College of Art and Design as of June 1, 2017. PSA will become an integral component of the College’s newly restructured continuing studies department, where it will be incorporated into an arm of the department called the Ringling College Lifelong Learning Academy (RCLLA). These two mergers have inspired the college to take a deeper look at the structure and organization of its rapidly growing continuing studies department. Thus, the College has also announced the formation of the Ringling College School of Continuing Studies (SCS) as an umbrella department housing all of the community education programs offered by Ringling College. Under this new restructuring are two tracks for non-degree seeking students: Art & Design Studies and General Studies & Enrichment. The Pierian Spring Academy will become part of RCLLA as a component of the General Studies & Enrichment track. PSA has been offering adult learning programs in Sarasota/Manatee counties for 19 years, enrolling 1350 adult learners last year in nearly 70 seminar-style courses.
