On August 11th from 4pm - 7pm, ABC-13 is hosting a one day community college registration drive. We are partnering with the Texas Gulf Coast Community College Consortium which is comprised of nine local public community colleges for a one day web chat and registration drive. Whether you are just starting your college classes or need to jump start your career we have the answers to your questions.
'Your Future Starts Now!' targets graduated Seniors who are wondering what they'll do next. The drive will also offer assistance for adults looking to make a change in their lives. Together, the nine public community colleges of the Gulf Coast Consortium enroll more than 150-thousand students in credit courses and 60-thousand students in non-credit Continuing Education and workforce courses. Community College has a multitude of two year certifications that can lead to full time employment. You can be the next student to enroll.
