June is designated as National Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, with the goal of raising awareness and promoting open conversations about the unique challenges men face with their mental health. This awareness is crucial as men are more likely to struggle with mental health issues like depression and su***de, often facing barriers to seeking help due to societal expectations and stigma. We wear green for Men’s Mental Health Month.

Another big change here for our students - RFID at the tool room!

Students will be given a small sticker to place on their student ID. This will allow them to tap their ID instead of having one of our tool attendants scan it. This new process will increase the accuracy of our tool inventory and allow students to checkout tools faster at the window.

In honor of Memorial Day, Owens Community College will be closed as we take time to remember and honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. We are deeply grateful to all members of the military, past and present, for their courage, dedication, and sacrifice.​

Normal operations will resume after the holiday.​

Thank you to our heroes—today and always.​

🌟Good News! 🌟

https://www.owens.edu/workforce-community-ed/continuing-ed/truck-driving-cdl/

A new CDL class starts June 1, with classes available for the daytime and nighttime. Choose from grant funding, too - we'll help you! This means that even if you couldn't afford the training before but have been dreaming of becoming a truck driver, we can help you make it happen.

Call us NOW at (567) 661-2689.

CDL/Truck Driving training is done in just one month (daytime) or 10 weeks (nighttime), but this is a commitment. Registration is open NOW, and grant processing takes some time (plus, CDL needs some prep work).

CDL questions? 📞 567-661-2689

More big changes!
(although this is just phase 1) 🤩

The body shop is getting a facelift to make room for a new program. During this phase, we have upgraded the doors and started to prep the walls for paint.

What colors do you think we’ll go with? 🤔
