Five years ago, the term PC hadn't even entered our catalog as a class type. NWTC's fall non-credit class offerings included 54 introductory Windows 95 class and 20 introductory Windows 98 class. NWTC offers flexible learning options on weekends and evenings, including Internet class, interactive television and video classes. In the 1998-99 school year, NWTC served 377 businesses and 40,797 people in nine counties, or roughly one out of every six eligible students in our district. That included adults changing professions, employees upgrading their skills, recent high school graduates training for their first careers and community members pursuing personal enrichment.
Numbers exceed the total headcount because some students take both credit and basic education class.
