Forsyth Tech: Reimagining the Future of Community College Education
At Forsyth Tech, we are committed to transforming the student experience and preparing learners for the future of work. As part of this commitment, we are proud to be a participant in the Reimagining Community College Design Challenge, an innovative initiative led by the Education Design Lab.
What is the Reimagining Community College Challenge?
The Reimagining Community College Design Challenge is a national initiative designed to help two-year institutions evolve in response to the changing needs of students and the workforce. The challenge focuses on rethinking traditional education models to create more flexible, equitable, and career-aligned learning experiences that support student success in a rapidly evolving economy.
