Berry, PhD Wednesday, March 31, 3-4:30 pm., via Zoom To maintain a purposeful and robust dialogue with the communities we serve, Central Ohio Technical College (COTC) is instituting an annual town hall meeting for each of our extended campus communities. Participants will learn firsthand about the state of the college with a particular emphasis on initiatives at each respective campus. College leadership will also answer questions submitted in advance by community members. Input from the town halls will help inform strategic planning. We invite you to join President Berry for the inaugural Pataskala Campus Town Hall, which will focus on Licking County’s workforce development and higher education needs. President Berry will also share the results of a recently completed Licking County strategic workforce needs assessment. Community members are invited to share their insights, hopes and concerns regarding future local workforce drivers and Pataskala campus academic programming needs. The partnership between the college and community is paramount to the success of the Pataskala campus. Your input is essential as COTC works to build an ever-stronger connection to the communities we serve. A Zoom link with instructions will be provided after registration.
