Education to Employment

The center, called E2E, short for Education to Employment: Quaboag Region Workforce Training and Community College Center, is a collaboration between HCC and Quaboag Valley Community Development Corporation.

The roughly 3,000 square-foot center located at 79 Main Street in Ware includes two classrooms, as well as private study areas and office space. Computer workstations will be available for community members interested in enrolling in credit classes at HCC as online students.

The Center is already offering non-credit classes in hospitality and culinary arts.  Course offerings have extended to include manufacturing and EMT training. For some courses, classroom education will be supplemented by hands-on training at Pathfinder Regional Vocational Technical High School in Palmer. HCC will also offer academic advising and career counseling services.
