A-B Tech Community College reopened for all students and programs on Monday, October 28, following a month-long closure due to impacts from Hurricane Helene.
The college has power, non-potable water, and internet at all locations, and will resume both in-person and online instruction across its academic, continuing education, and adult education classes.
In communications to employees and students, A-B Tech directed students and employees to monitor text alerts, email and the Moodle learning management system for details about classes, formats and schedule changes. A-B Tech’s Emergency Services, Allied Health and Nursing cohorts, as well as some Career Technical Education (CTE) programs, have already resumed.
A-B Tech also is conducting online well-being surveys of students and employees to get a better understanding of how they were personally impacted by Helene. “We’re excited to welcome everyone back, but the safety and well-being of our students and employees will continue to be our top priority,” said A-B Tech President John Gossett.
