Southern Sussex Rotary (SSR) recently hosted Dr. Bobbi Barends, vice president and campus director of the Owens Campus in Georgetown, to discuss Delaware Technical Community College’s Workforce Development and Continuing Education program. Barends informed the group how Delaware Tech works directly with community stakeholders and business leaders to help fulfill the need in the local workforce.

SSR pledged $2,000 to fund four $500 scholarships as part of the Moving Forward Scholarship Program, which aims to help provide funding to students who are looking for additional training, reentering the workforce, or may have taken an unconventional path to pursuing their education.
