CCTC EARNS MILITARY FRIENDLY® SCHOOL DESIGNATION FOR 12TH YEAR
Central Carolina Technical College announced that it has earned the 2023-2024 Military Friendly® School designation in the Gold level.
Institutions earning the Military Friendly® School designation were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. More than 1,800 schools participated in the 2022-2023 survey with 530 schools earning level designations in Gold, Silver and Bronze. Of those, 250 were selected for Gold award status for their leading practices, outcomes and effective programs. The 2023-2024 Military Friendly® Schools list will be published in G.I. Jobs magazine’s May issue.
Methodology, criteria and weightings were determined by Viqtory with input from the Military Friendly® Advisory Council of independent leaders in the higher education and military recruitment community. Final ratings were determined by combining the institution’s survey response set and government/agency public data sources, within a logic-based scoring assessment. Viqtory measures the institution’s ability to meet thresholds for student retention, graduation, job placement, loan repayment, persistence (degree advancement or transfer) and loan default rates for all students and, specifically, for student veterans.
“We are so proud to be designated as a Military Friendly® School for the 12th consecutive year,”
said vice president of Student Affairs Lisa Bracken. “It is an honor for the college to serve our military population. The college understands that balancing military life with pursuing an education can be challenging at times. In an effort to reduce challenges, we offer several services for our active duty military members, dependents and veterans. We look forward to continuing to serve our military population for many years to come.”
