Contract Training
Customized Training (or Contract Training) is tailored to the needs of our local employers. Through this flexible model, we can rapidly design content that meets the specific requirements of your business. We can modify the existing credit-based curriculum or design a new curriculum as required by you, the employer. We can offer these courses in our labs and classrooms on campus, at your facility, or online. Please contact Meriem Aman at: meriem.aman@dctc.edu if you want further information on any of our Customized (Contract) training options.
