History
In September 2013, the Board of Visitors approved the creation of a College of Continuing Education and Professional Development to provide students with skills they can use on the job or advance in their career. The college began operating in the fall of 2014 and James M. Shaeffer was selected as the first dean. In the spring of 2019, ODU reorganized the college into the School of Continuing Education under the newly created Assistant Vice President for Academic Initiatives and Continuing Education with Renee Felts serving as the first assistant vice president.
