About 23,000 people take classes every year through A-B Tech. As tuition and student debts everywhere rise hand in hand, students across the demographic spectrum are turning to technical and community colleges. Today’s guest is Terry Brasier, who has spent 10 years as the college’s vice president for student services. We talk about how A-B Tech has evolved to meet the broadening backgrounds and goals of today’s students, its partnerships in a variety of industries to produce employment-ready graduates and the challenge of student engagement when everyone lives off-campus.
