Ashland Community and Technical College

PROGRAM OFFERINGS AND PARTNERSHIPS Ashland Community and Technical College crafts robust academic programs and partnerships catering to the developing job market and the community it serves. Vital sectors the college focuses on are healthcare and skilled trades, areas experiencing a demand for knowledgeable professionals. “Our largest sector is healthcare, and we have collaboratively launched programs in radiology and medical technology, ECG, and others,” Ferguson says. With the highest number of welding booths in Kentucky, efforts in skilled trades are equal to those in medicine. Complemented by a broad range of training and state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, the institution implements nearly round- the-clock learning. Partnerships play a crucial role in ACTC’s operational and educational programs.
