STUDENT SUCCESS

Ben J. Davies - Student Success

"I've never done well in school but just one year of schooling at COCC has really turned my life around. Before college I worked several different jobs, never really getting anywhere, now I own my own business doing what I love."

"My favorite part of the COCC manufacturing program is that it is mostly self-paced. I never did very well in a classroom environment, especially high school, so being able to work without someone watching my every move was very beneficial. The instructor was a crucial part of my success. He saw something in me that no one else did. I would like to let people know that attending the community college was a great experience."
