Quote
“Teaching non-credit courses at LBCC has been immensely fulfilling because I get to witness the dedication and transformation of students seeking new skills and career opportunities. It’s incredibly rewarding to guide and support learners as they gain confidence and achieve their goals through practical, hands-on education.”
