This award provides funding to Carteret Community College Foundation to support the expansion of Carteret Community College’s welding program. The college provides training to students from several high schools, including an on-site welding program at Croatan High School (CHS). By participating in this program at CHS, students can obtain a welding certificate on the high school campus which allows them to enter the workforce. They can also continue their post-secondary education at the college to take classes in advanced welding techniques toward advanced certificates, diplomas, or an Associate Degree in Welding. This is expected to increase enrollment at the college by at least 15 students annually. Additional multi-process equipment at the college is needed to meet the expected enrollment. The college expects to double annual Associate Degree graduates over the next 2-3 years. Golden LEAF funds would be used for seven multi-process welders and an air compressor at the college.
Any project more than a couple of years old may not reflect current Board priorities.
