Caldwell County Workforce Wednesday, a partnership with the Caldwell County School system, Caldwell Community College and Technical Institute and Caldwell County Economic Development, visited JBS and CCC&TI's Broyhill Center for Advanced Technologies. Here is a short glimpse of what we saw and learned during our visit. The educators involved in this program can go back to the classroom and share with their students the opportunities available in our community. We hope you enjoy our tour of these facilities and a special thanks to MDI for an update on the automation changes going on at their plant in southern Caldwell County.
