Proud of these students for stepping up at the Kitsap Home & Remodel Expo. They volunteered their time to help younger students experience the trades by working with them at our playhouse painting booth.
It was great to see both former and current students leading, teaching, and representing the program.

Proud of our students for taking advantage of hiring and networking opportunities like today’s McKinstry event.
These experiences give students the chance to meet key leaders, ask questions, explore career pathways, and begin building professional connections early. As they consider their options after high school, opportunities like this help them see what is possible and how their skills can connect to a multitude of careers.
Thank you to McKinstry for investing in students and creating space for them to learn, connect, and grow. #connectwithnewtech

Students decorated old net floats for a community art exhibit while also demonstrating their hands-on training by repairing a simulated pressurized leak. From artistic expression to real-world maritime problem solving, our students continue to show the wide range of skills being developed in the Maritime program.
Great job representing NCTA and the future of the maritime industry!

"Bring Yourself, Together We'll Build the Rest."
More than 130 middle and high school students from across Skagit and Whatcom counties explored NCTA programs during three events held at our Mount Vernon and Anacortes campuses.
See Yourself Here Days took place on March 31 and April 2, giving students the opportunity to rotate through three programs of interest. See Yourself Here Night, held on April 14, featured an arena-style showcase of all NCTA programs, where families connected with passionate students and instructors.
Each event included interactive activities designed and led by current NCTA students, offering an authentic glimpse into student life at NCTA. Whether students are just beginning to explore career possibilities or already have a path in mind, these events highlight how attending NCTA during the school year or summer session can help move their goals forward.
