Curriculum Development

Together with program administrators and industry representatives, NC3 evaluates NC3 members' classrooms, labs, training systems, program goals, and local labor market demands to achieve the ideal educational workspace. The goal is to modernize effective training centers that will attract and produce the highest caliber of student. In support of these efforts, NC3 offers to all new and prospective members custom Vision and Benchmarking Tours at one of its national centers of excellence.
