DETROIT, June 27, 2008—Kaplan Career Institute’s Detroit campus will hold a graduation ceremony on Friday, June 27, for 249 students. The ceremony will take place at 6:30 p.m. at Cobo Hall, One Washington Blvd. # 401, Detroit. Al Allen, reporter for MyFox Detroit, will keynote the ceremony.
Students will be recognized for earning diplomas in one of three programs in the allied health field.
