NMC’s Tech PIECS Visits Washington
Eileen Babauta, Director of the Technology Partners Increasing Employment through Coordinated Services (Tech PIECS) at Northern Marianas College, and her colleagues visited their congressional office in DC to discuss the college's efforts to expand educational and workforce opportunities in the CNMI. The delegation also shared concerns about Typhoon Sinlaku disaster relief and discussed challenges and opportunities facing higher education in the Commonwealth. The meeting focused on how we can continue working together to strengthen federal support for Northern Marianas College and create more opportunities for our students.
