RCC Is Living Local on WBTW

Robeson Community College, with funding provided by ApprenticeshipNC, was able to create several segments for the morning show Living Local with host Jessica Grace. 

The theme of each segment is centered around apprenticeships, as we try to target businesses to join RCC in establishing an apprenticeship program for students. 

Living Local Carolina airs 9:30a-10a, Monday thru Friday on WBTW/Channel 13. 

If you are not able to receive the WBTW signal, you can watch the segments live at https://www.wbtw.com/watch-live/

Please help us spread the word about Apprenticeships to businesses by sharing our posts on social media. Each student that is given an opportunity to become an apprentice will receive up to $2500 per year for books, supplies, tuition, and fees. The more apprenticeship opportunities we have, the more students we can help financially in achieving their goal of becoming a college graduate and gaining the skills they need to be successful in the workforce.
