At Open House, prospective students and their families can:

Attendees will also have the opportunity to learn more about the opening of Wake Tech East, the college's newest location, and plans for the upcoming College Showcase and Community Celebration Grand Opening event at 5:30 p.m. April 25. Conveniently located off Interstate 87 in Wendell, Wake Tech East will offer university transfer degrees as well as specialized programs in engineering, public safety and aviation and will serve its first students this fall.
In addition to degree programs, Wake Tech offers accelerated non-degree training to prepare students with skills to immediately enter the workforce. The college is offering an opportunity to learn about these programs during Workforce Wednesday, a virtual open house from 5 to 7 p.m. on April 17.
Wake Tech is North Carolina's largest community college, serving about 64,000 adults annually. All Wake Tech programs, even those traditionally designed to prepare students for immediate employment, offer opportunities to transfer to a university for further study.
