The College’s Continuing Education programs selected for short-term training in Corpus Christi and Aransas County align with Workforce Solutions of the Coastal Bend’s Targeted Occupations List for 2019-2021 and trends outlined by the Texas Workforce Commission for both Texas and the Coastal Bend. These programs correlate with high demand for employment, including: Healthcare (Certified Nurse Aid, Electrocardiography, Medical Billing and Coding, Medical Secretary, and Phlebotomy) and Trade Industry (Building Maintenance, Carpentry [Basic], Electrical Wiring, HVAC, Millwright, Plumbing [Basic] and Welding). These short-term programs range from four to 16 weeks to complete, and programmatic sequencing allows students to on-board into specific study fields without prior knowledge or skills development. Additionally, these CE programs, whether they provide certification or WSAs (Workforce Skills Awards), allow students to gain immediate employment during or upon completion.The College offers various modalities of course delivery, including face-to-face, remote or E-learning and hybrid formats.
