This is my first online learning experience, and I must say that the Professors made the rubric and syllabus' very easy to follow. This style learning requires much discipline and time management, which I do appreciate. Learning online, as well as through a pandemic was trying, especially taking an accounting course that required 16 weeks of work to be completed in 8 weeks.
Though I am not tech-savvy, I was able to manage through Wake Technical Community College's easily navigable website program, Blackboard. In addition to course information, Blackboard has its own library, in and offsite links to valuable course and college information, homework review questions and videos, and other additional resources.
I am in my last semester, and am grateful for the experience allotted to me through Volunteers of America, as well as the school's advisors and Professors.
I was able to remain an honor roll student, and have been awarded the opportunity to study abroad, therefore, help!

I admire and support Wake Tech's mission to provide affordable and quality education for everyone whether online or in-person. This is my fourth semester at Wake Tech, and I have enjoyed every part of it. The professors really care about the students and the positive learning environment really cultivates motivation. I'm actually a senior in high school, but because of Wake Tech's generous and gracious CCP (college career promise) program, I've been able to earn college credit now. I absolutely appreciate the opportunity I've had to engage in college courses as a high school student. Even on online courses, everyone is so encouraging, hoping the best for each individual. Overall, Wake Tech seeks to prepare and give the necessary tools for students of all different ages to succeed. In the past two years, they have handled COVID fairly well, although A/B schedules are preferred, Wake Tech has made learning on online easy and clear.
Wake Technical Community College is a very inclusive, diverse, and busy college. With over 11 campuses spread across North Carolina, there are a multitude of career opportunities. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the campuses are easy to navigate. The classes are small, and the students are very social and outgoing. Wake Tech provides opportunities to show off your work, and be a part of groups that spark your interest. There are many clubs and organizations on campus, including student-run events, and career fairs. This school is definitely a great gateway to a four-year school or career, as it is inexpensive and includes many certificate or associate's degrees to prepare you for your future!
