We had the wonderful opportunity to spend the day at the CEO Expo meeting and talking to students from all over Jackson County yesterday. It was great to get to talk with them about their goals and tell them about the ways we could help them reach their goal! Students were able to get hands on with all the training offered at KDCIA. A big thank you to Kevin Dukes Career & Innovation Academy and their staff for hosting this event.

Building Codes in Action!

NACC Building Codes students are taking learning beyond the classroom!

Students visit active construction sites alongside building inspectors to see how plumbing, electrical, carpentry, and other building codes are applied in the field. They then bring that knowledge back to campus and put it into practice in the lab.

Knowledge of building codes is needed for State Licensing —see it, learn it, build it, get licensed.
