The Northeast Texas Community College Foundation is participating in East Texas Giving Day Tuesday, May 3.

East Texas Giving Day is a 24-hour day of giving that provides critical funding for our area nonprofits. East Texas Communities Foundation is partnering with area nonprofits to give thousands of donors from every community in East Texas a chance to raise funds for local needs.

Registration is underway for May Intersession, Summer and Fall 2016. As you register, don't forget that we offer a wide variety of course offerings to help you†fit the classes you need into your busy life. These include evening, online, hybrid, afternoon, and fast track courses. Beginning this Fall, NTCC is also expanding the number of eight-week courses offered.

Offered online, these classes cover the same amount of material as a traditional semester in only eight weeks.
