SGA - Do You Know Who Your Student Leaders Are?
QVCC - TURBULENT ECONOMIC TIMES AFFECTS THE COLLEGE POSITIVELY
The fall 2008 semester at Quinebaug Valley Community College (QVCC) started with a record 1,947 students enrolled at the Danielson campus and Willimantic Center. The number of full time students is 715, which represents a 40% growth since fall 2003. For the first time, the town of Windham represents the highest enrollment of students with 317. In turn, the QVCC Willimantic Center has recorded a 25% increase in students since 2003. More"IDEAS ARE FREE" WORKSHOP FOR BUSINESSES WILL BE HELD AT QVCC

Front-line employees see many problems and opportunities that their managers don’t because they are the ones doing the work. Robinson and co-author Dean Schroeder studied more than 150 organizations in 17 countries to discover what worked, what didn’t, and why when it comes to promoting ideas. More
NEW DIETARY ASSISTANT PROGRAM OFFERED AT QVCC

This program will provide students with a stepping stone to an entry-level position in food service. Dietary assistants play an important role by helping the registered dietician or dietary manager in hospitals, long-term care facilities, day care facilities, school lunch programs, and public health offices.
