Our Mission

 The Jefferson Educational Society was created as a non-profit organization with the Pennsylvania Department of State on September 29, 2008 under Entity Number 3837986. On the same date, the Jefferson Educational Society was granted tax exempt status by the Federal Department of the Treasury under Employer Identification Number 26-3460486. Although the Jefferson Educational Society of Erie operates under a 501 (c) (3) educational non-profit charter, it does not offer either degrees or programs for formal academic credit.
