About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Appalachian Regional Commission awarded Western Piedmont Community College a $300,000 Project Grant under the Appalachian Area Development program (CFDA 23.002) for the period January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2027. The award supports career and technical education initiatives designed to address workforce development needs in the Appalachian region, with particular emphasis on entrepreneurial development, workforce training, and community capacity building in Burke County, North Carolina and the broader Appalachian area.

As a state-controlled institution of higher learning serving rural Appalachia, Western Piedmont Community College leverages this funding alongside complementary federal support from the U.S. Department of Education to deliver comprehensive educational programs targeting disadvantaged populations, including low-income and first-generation students. The college's demonstrated experience administering multiple federal grants across workforce development, student support services, and regional economic development initiatives positions it to effectively deploy these resources toward strengthening the skilled workforce and supporting regional economic competitiveness in accordance with ARC's strategic objectives for education, entrepreneurship, and community economic development.
