I had the opportunity to attend this meeting on March 6th in Henderson. This group works very hard to keep our workforce strong even in these tough economic times. Debbie Smith, CTE Director from Person County talked about the implementation of Virtual Enterprises in Granville, Warren, and Wake Counties. Person County is coming on board next year. The group thought the program was an outstanding way to teach our students about "real world" business. There were several other reports given from Ronnie Goswick, Franklin County Economic Development Director, and Vincent Gilreath, Director of the Kerr Tar COG.
