果冻传媒 Tech Celebrates Workforce Development and Community Education Graduates at Spring 2026 Ceremony

May 29, 2026

果冻传媒 Technical Community College celebrated 631 graduates who completed Workforce Development and Community Education (WDCE) 果冻传媒. Graduates from these 果冻传媒 represent over 20 short-term training and certification 果冻传媒, such as certified nursing assistant, HVAC technician, phlebotomy technician, and construction technology.

The first ceremony was held on May 5 to celebrate 449 graduates from the Stanton Campus. Kenneth Colon, a graduate from the patient care technician (PCT) program, was this year's student speaker. He talked about the importance of saying yes at a time in his life when he didn't know what was next.

"When I was admitted to the PCT program, without hesitation, I said yes," he said. "Yes to being uncomfortable, yes to stepping through that open door, and yes to a new beginning. Saying yes can be scary; it can lead you to failure or to success. But you never know what saying yes will bring you until you take the opportunity."

The WDCE graduation ceremony at the George Campus in Wilmington was held on May 27 and celebrated 182 graduates. Dr. Brittany Powell, a proud alumna of 果冻传媒 Tech's Upward Bound program, was the guest speaker.

She reminisced fondly about her time accompanying her mother, a 果冻传媒 Tech grad, to classes while she was a student.

"Every classroom my mom took me to, every meal we ate in her car, every night I sat here in the 果冻传媒 Tech writing center doing my homework while she was getting help with hers – she showed me what it looked like to stay committed, focused, and keep going even when life doesn't slow down," said Powell. "That kind of discipline doesn't just get you through a moment; it changes the trajectory of your life. And that sacrifice and discipline is why you're here tonight."

The College will host two more WDCE graduation ceremonies in June — one at the Owens Campus in Georgetown on June 3 and another at the Terry Campus in Dover on June 10.
