Northwest Technical College will showcase its academic programs to more than 300 high school students from around the area at its annual “Passport to the Future” event on March 22.
The event begins at 9:20 a.m. and will end at about 1 p.m. with students from 13 schools — and area homeschoolers — expected to attend. Students will arrive at different times according to their group assignments. High schools expected to participate include Bemidji, Blackduck, Cass Lake-Bena, Kelliher, Northome, Walker and others in the surrounding area.
Students will explore NTC’s automotive, electrical, plumbing/HVAC, business, nursing, dental and childcare programs in 30-minute sessions and will participate in a hands-on activity that would be part of their future career in that field. Participating students also will have lunch on campus.
