Officials say more students are returning to upskill or enter the workforce as demand rises for trained workers. The college has launched a new plumbing program this fall, offering hands-on training two days a week and online learning the rest of the time.
Students can earn $16 to $25 an hour as apprentices while training, making plumbing a high-demand, high-earning career. Texarkana College is also expanding aviation programs, with pilot training set to begin this spring.
