An education at Delaware Technical & Community College opens the doors of access, opportunity, excellence and hope for our students. Adhering to these principles is the key to the College’s success and enables us to accomplish our mission, shape the future, and turn dreams into reality.

Responsiveness to the dynamic needs of
Delaware’s businesses and industries has been a cornerstone of Delaware Tech’s success since first opening our doors. We know that the workforce of the future will require strong technical skills and knowledge that must be kept current. Changes in technology have an impact on every career field, so we must continually upgrade and update the equipment and technology we use to prepare our students. Ongoing communication with businesses that employ our graduates provides us feedback on their preparedness and the relevance of our curricula. Our business partners provide direction and input to ensure that what we teach is ahead of the curve, utilizing the latest in new and emerging technologies.

When you choose to contribute to Delaware Tech’s Shaping the Future Capital Campaign, you are investing in the future of Delaware. Not only are you helping to enrich the educational experience of our students, but you are ensuring that after graduation, they’ll be prepared to start on the job with the technologically sophisticated skills that Delaware’s employers need to compete and succeed. You’re also investing in the future of our communities. As our graduates go on to well-paying jobs, they become fully contributing members of our society — adding to the tax base and serving as role models for future generations.

Your gift will be used to purchase the laboratory equipment and classroom technology that will greatly enhance our programs and may also go toward providing a student scholarship where none currently exists. Equipped with these necessary tools, Delaware Tech and our students will continue to shape the future of Delaware, its businesses, and communities.

Sincerely,

Orlando J. George, Jr.
President
