| At DCTC, you’ll find examples where our partnerships with local, state and national businesses benefit our students. Thanks to the work of our program advisory committees, we maintain active partnerships with more than 500 businesses and industries to ensure that students are receiving the skills employers are seeking, using the latest technology possible. Our instructors don’t just know this stuff, they live it. Instructors at DCTC have worked extensively in their professions and remain active in the industry. They bring their business and industry experience into their classrooms, shops, labs and studios. And our instructors do more than teach – they advise and mentor students. They make themselves available to students not just for help in coursework, but for help in achieving results, whether that’s finding a new job or improving current one. Year after year, we place more than 95% of our graduates in their field within six months of graduation. And, as always, we offer lifetime placement assistance to graduates. |
