Clackamas Community College is hosting a career technical education showcase for the community next month at its Oregon City campus. The showcase will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. on April 11.
Attendees can learn how to earn degrees and certificates that will qualify them for well-paying, in-demand careers in two years or less. They can also learn how to pay for college, including scholarships and grants.
Instructors will be on hand to talk about their programs, and participants will be welcome to tour the buildings, shops and labs and meet with employers.
Featured programs include apprenticeship, auto body/collision repair and refinishing technology, automotive service technology, business, computer science, education and early childhood education, electronics engineering technology, health sciences, horticulture, industrial maintenance technology, machine tool technology, computer-aided manufacturing, renewable energy technology, water and environmental technology, welding and wildland fire.
“If you want to step out of the traditional classroom and into a hands-on workspace and earn a certificate or a degree that gets you job-ready in two years or less, Clackamas Community College is the right choice,” said Tom Brown, CCC career connected learning systems navigator.
Participants at this event may receive one of 50 free tuition waivers good for up to four credits at CCC — a value of $468. To learn more and register, visit clackamas.edu/CTE.
