A new partnership between the Washington County Career Center and Washington State Community College is recruiting current high school sophomores and juniors of the county to apply for the Robotics Automation Engineering program. Two open house events next week at the community college will allow prospective students and their guardians to tour the facility, ask questions and apply for no cost.
The clock is ticking down for a burgeoning partnership to be successful.
“Typically we don’t recruit students this late in the year, but this opportunity is so unique, it doesn’t happen unless we get at least 30 students to apply,” said Dennis Blatt, superintendent of the Washington County Career Center.
