Currently attending the automotive course here. I wish I would have taken this course years ago. Great program and instructors.
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™Amazing, inexpensive education. The teachers really seem to love their subjects and have a passion for making every student understand them to the best of their ability. The willingness to help individual students to such extents is practically unheard of for college. TCCC is flat out amazing!
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™What a privilege to comment on the impact of Tri-County Community College. At Christian Love Ministries we have been able to help 1000's of men and women in their efforts to recover from addiction. Many of our students chose to continue their education once "the fog" lifts. Over the years some of our students have decided to earn their GED, while others have enrolled as full-time students. This college is full of wonderful, dedicated teachers and staff. We are grateful to have TCCC in our "backyard!"
