Increasingly, community colleges are developing transfer agreements with four-year institutions, whereby students earn the first two years of a bachelor’s degree at a community college. In 2010, the community colleges served over 6,400 employers and more than 254,000 individuals in open enrollment and customized workforce training and services, contributing substantially to the economic development of their service regions.
