At NTC, overall enrollment grew by 8.5% in the fall of 2024 and has its highest head-count enrollment since 2018.

Hoffman has been with BSU and NTC since January 2023 in a variety of roles. Before joining BSU, he spent four years as registrar and director of academic advising at Northland Community and Technical College in Thief River Falls and East Grand Forks, along with over 21 years in a number of roles at the University of North Dakota and the UND School of Law in Grand Forks.
