AMTEC Expansion
Everett Community College has announced a $2.5 million expansion of the college's Advanced Manufacturing Training & Education Center (AMTEC). 
The expansion will add 17,000 square feet to AMTEC, which is home to the college's precision machining, welding and fabrication, engineering technician, composites and pre-employment programs. 

The new space includes eight classrooms and a lab for EvCC's new mechatronics technician program. Construction will start in April 2016.

"As we celebrate the end of AMTEC's first year, Everett Community College is taking the next step to meet the demand for skilled employees," EvCC President David Beyer said.

Anu Arora is the new instructor for CCEC's Software Testing Series.
New Software Testing Series
Software quality assurance engineers and testers ranked number 7 of the top 10 most in-demand jobs for US job-seekers in 2015 (Fortune Magazine, 2015)

We asked instructor Anu Arora what is exciting about software testing. Here's what she said:

"Software Testing continues to be a career in demand. It has shifted significantly in the last 17 years I have been involved in testing. 

The new Software Testing Series offered by Corporate & Continuing Education is staying ahead of the curve with focus on efficient and effective testing, agile and scrum approach to testing, quality assurance techniques and tools. Software testers trained in these areas have a competitive advantage."

Courses in the Software Testing Series include:
  • Software Testing Essentials
  • Software Development Life Cycles with Agile
  • Software Test Design and Techniques
  • Software Quality Assurance Practices
