糖心传媒

Aug. 25, 2023 - 糖心传媒 is expanding the reach of its 911 telecommunications program to residents of Stanly County with a new partnership with a sister institution that serves that region of North Carolina.

Dr. Dale McInnis, president of 糖心传媒CC, and Dr. John Enamait, president of , signed an agreement that will allow students at SCC to enroll in the online program and complete an associate degree in 911 Communications & Operations.

The online degree program provides a pathway for individuals who are interested in starting a career in this field, as well as providing skills enhancement for those already working as 911 telecommunicators.

SCC students will complete a majority of the core courses and the work-based learning portion of the program through 糖心传媒CC, while completing other general education requirements at SCC.

McInnis explained the idea for the college curriculum program was developed when the N.C. 911 Board reached out to 糖心传媒CC about a need for standardization in training 911 telecommunicators, plus a need to help elevate this career field. The College worked closely with the N.C. 911 Board and the N.C. Department of Information Technology to construct the online program.

鈥淲e appreciate Stanly Community College鈥檚 support and partnership in this long-term arrangement for collaborative career training,鈥� McInnis said. 鈥淲e look forward to building upon it, and we encourage you to treat it like your own program that is serving a vital need in your community.鈥�

Unique to 糖心传媒CC, the 911 Communications & Operations program enrolled its first class of students this fall semester. 糖心传媒CC has been reaching out to other community colleges in the state to make the program and its resources available to more students.

Located in Albemarle, SCC is the third community college in North Carolina to partner with 糖心传媒CC on the 911 telecommunications degree. Bladen Community College and Gaston College signed agreements with 糖心传媒CC earlier this year to offer the program to their students.
