CollapseWenatchee Valley College
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaWenatchee Valley College, or WVC, is a two-year Community College located in Wenatchee, Washington. The college provides students with adult education classes, certifications, and 2-year Associates Degree. WVC's primary service district is one of the largest in the state, serving an area larger than the state of Massachusetts, at more than . The school consists of three campuses, the main campus located in central Wenatchee, a Downtown Learning Center in downtown Wenatchee, and a separate campus in Omak, Washington. Because of the close proximity to area high schools, WVC maintains a sizable Running Start student population, with students attending college during the Junior and Senior years in High School.
History
Wenatchee Valley College originally opened as a private college in 1939, from donations from 51 area citizens. In 1941, Wenatchee Valley College was adopted into the state public education system. Originally, classes were held on the third floor of the original Wenatchee High School situated at King and Idaho streets.
In 1949, the college moved to the home of A.Z. Wells home on of land along Fifth Street. The home was hand-built, consisting of stones from the Columbia River, and was modeled with castle style turrets. Wells House held all classrooms and offices, until additional buildings could be constructed allowing the Wells House to become a dormitory.
WVC was able to purchase land from neighboring land owners, expanding the campus to its current 56 acres. Wells House still stands on the WVC Main Campus, although the building is owned by the Wells House Committee, which currently maintains the mansion.
Community College District #15 was formed in 1967, expanding WVC's service area to include Chelan, Douglas, and Okanogan counties. A satellite campus was set up in Omak in a former hospital building, until the Omak campus was built in the mid-1970s near downtown Omak.
Recent Expansion
A large section of the WVC Main Campus in Wenatchee has undergone expansion. The college added parking to accommodate additional students. A new Central Washington University extension building was constructed west of Batjer Hall and north of Sexton Hall. The Fraternal Order of the Eagles building across the street was remodeled into the Music and Arts Center. Anderson Hall has been demolished to make way for a new Allied Health and Safety building Wenatchi Hall, which opened in September 2007. The new building replaces an aging Anderson Hall, provides expanded room for Allied Health and Safety programs, science and other courses.

College Advice on Wenatchee Valley College |
Question: How do I get my A+ certification?Can I go to any college to get my A+ certification and do I have to have anything special to take the tests? So far from what I understand here in Washington I can just go to the Wenatchee Valley College (the only college in my county) and pay $360.00 to take the tests...not real sure on this...23 months ago
Best AnswerI'm working toward my A+, so I can point you to the right places. The only thing that it required from you to take and pass the tests, is the knowledge and the money for the vouchers. I decided to attend a local community college just so I can fill in the gaps with formal education. Plus, a certification from school will look nicer when I put it next to my A+ cert. This would be entirely up to you though. Take every practice exam you find. Cram your head with all the related technical knowledge you find. You can even browse sites like Yahoo Answers to get some practice at troubleshooting computer issues, which is why I'm usually on here. If only people would be more specific with their questions and problems though... You can check out this website to get a good idea of what you need to know, what you can expect from having the certification and how to go about studying for it. http://www.proprofs.com/ Also...check out CompTIA's website: http://www.comptia.org/ |
