The event brought together the community, faculty, and potential students for a hands-on look at SCC’s 20 technical and trade programs. Visitors were able to:
- Meet instructors and current students
- Explore two programs through in-depth tours with hands-on activities
- Learn how to apply and register for upcoming classes
- Access comprehensive support services, including financial aid guidance, disability accommodations, veteran resources, and more.
This free event is open to the public, with a special emphasis on high school students, career changers, and community members seeking a two-year degree, workforce certificates, new profession, or opportunities to enhance existing skills.
“Trade Discovery Day brings our community together to explore opportunities in high-demand career fields and connect directly with the people and programs that make those opportunities real.,” said Ashley Purdin, SCC’s Dean of Technical Education. “Our goal is to help every person who walks through the door imagine their future and take the first step toward it.”
