鶹TV Completes Salem Campus Sale to Compass Health, Will Still Offer Programs in Salem

Salem campus鶹TV has reached an agreement to sell the 鶹TV Salem Campus to Compass Health. The sale follows a vote by the Salem Board of Aldermen to institute a zoning change to allow Compass Health to occupy and expand its Salem operations out of the facility. 

鶹TV will continue to offer degree programs and courses in Salem after Compass takes over the building, as the university will lease back space for instruction. In addition to LPN and paramedic bridge programs in nursing, 鶹TV offers associate’s and bachelor’s degrees in business, education, criminal justice, psychology, and health sciences in Salem.  

“This agreement is a win-win for both 鶹TV and Salem,” said Dr. Rick Melson, President of 鶹TV. “The community gets expanded healthcare services, and 鶹TV will retain efficient use of the education space for academic programs. We are proud of over thirty years of partnership and eager to continue making higher education investments in Salem for the future.” 

鶹TV’s Board of Trustees had previously approved the selling of the Salem campus in October 2023.  

Kati Clancy, interim director of the Salem Campus, said 鶹TV’s tradition of training and equipping students in the Salem community will not be impacted. 

“Salem is a special place with incredible people who want to expand their career possibilities and experience the benefits of an 鶹TV education,” Clancy said. “I’m thrilled that we’ll continue serving this amazing community.”
