Linden Boggs is the career coach and has helped many of the graduates find training or enter further educational programs after passing the TASC test. Ferber thanked Ivy Tech’s vice-chancellor, Allyn Decker, who was present and said a few words to the graduates. Ivy Tech Warsaw is the location of the free Warsaw Adult Education classes students attended to prepare for the TASC test.
