Congratulations to our amazing Dental Hygiene Class of 2024 who has 100% passed their National Written Boards and their Adex Clinical Board on their first attempt. The Dental Hygiene program is a collaborative program with Valdosta State University. Enrollment is limited and admission is competitive with only 15 open positions per year. The Clinical portion of this program begins each Fall Semester on the Valdosta Campus. We wish these seniors the best of luck! #DentalHygiene #PassRate #WiregrassTech

Wiregrass appreciates program supporters like Lasseter Tractor Company who has been one of the wonderful supporters of the new CDL and Diesel Technology Facility. A week ago, John Hayes, Co-Owner/Corporate Sales manager at Lasseter was one of the speakers at the Topping Off Ceremony for the new facility.

Wiregrass's Marketing and PR team was recognized again with a national marketing award for 2023. The college was one of two nationwide colleges to receive a bronze award for the Social Media Marketing Series. The College Collegiate Advertising Program is an elite program that recognizes higher education organizations for excellence in their schools' communications, marketing, advertising, and promotions. The social media campaign featured recent graduates who had been hired before or just after graduation. “We wanted a way to celebrate our graduates from Fall 2022 and used the power of social media to do so as well as show others how Wiregrass graduates find great jobs in-field,” shared Lydia Hubert, Director of Marketing and Public Relations.https://lnkd.in/eUqXFg3p#SkilledAndHired #WiregrassMarketing #WorkforceDevelopment
