"MVCTC helped make me successful by allowing great opportunities such as various college credits to build my future. MVCTC works with Clark State and many more colleges to help students like me receive scholarships or take proficiency tests. Now I am back on the MVCTC campus, where I teach Diesel Technology for Clark State Community College. Without MVCTC, I may have never gone to college and ended up where I am! Thanks, MVCTC!"
