AUBURN — Central Maine Community College President Scott Knapp recently announced that the college’s Corporate and Community Services department will become the Center for Workforce and Professional Development.
The center provides custom training and professional development programs across Androscoggin, Oxford, Franklin and Lincoln counties. Non-credit classes (including online options) and industry-recognized certification programs are also offered. Popular training topics include supervisory, leadership, communications, customer service, occupational trade skills, and computer-based applications.

High-quality training and lifelong learning opportunities are crucial to remain competitive in a dynamic global economy.”
