NTC Hosts Open House Featuring VR Career Simulators

Prospective students who wanted to learn more about the trade programs at Northwest Technical College in Bemidji had a chance to do so today at an open house event.

In partnership with Big Ideas, students were able to participate in a free mobile learning lab that featured virtual simulators, giving them a glimpse of the 23 trade careers.

The event was also in collaboration with Bemidji BI-CAP’s YouthBuild program, which provides those ages 16 to 24 who left the traditional school system a chance to learn other beneficial life skills.

The first day of classes at NTC is August 23, and the college is still accepting applications for trade courses.
