Posted

East Georgia State College will hold its Fall Commencement Ceremony

on Saturday, December 10 at 10 a.m. The ceremony will be held in the Gymnasium in

Swainsboro. Friends and family of the graduates are welcome to attend the event. The

speaker for the ceremony is Dr. Patrice Buckner Jackson.

Dr. Patrice Buckner Jackson, known in her community as Dr. PBJ, disrupts burnout by

refreshing the hearts and equipping the hands of overworked, undervalued workers achievers who serve from a heart of purpose.

Dr. PBJ is an educator of almost 25 years and an Executive Coach for more than 10 years.

She holds a doctoral degree in Education Administration, served in executive leadership at

colleges and universities, and facilitates leadership training as a faculty member for the

Center for Creative Leadership. Dr. Jackson worked in higher education at many levels,

from student assistant to President’s Cabinet and is the recipient of several professional

awards and accolades.

Dr. Jackson founded EduCare Training and Consulting, LLC out of a purpose pouring in to

those who pour out so much. Much of her work is specifically focused on equipping and

refreshing educators. Compassionate work can carry a high price tag: your mind, body,

spirit and relationships may be in distress as you serve the needs of others. Dr. Jackson

leads her community to serve well without paying an ultimate price.

Currently, Dr. PBJ serves as creator and host of the Disrupting Burnout podcast as well as

the founder and facilitator of the EduCare Women’s Leadership Academy.

East Georgia State College looks forward to celebrating its graduates!
