(KAIR)--Doniphan and Brown county high school students, their parents and businesses value the technical program offered by Highland Community College.

That’s according to a survey conducted by the college to gain and understanding of perception levels within Doniphan and Brown counties regarding academic programs and services offered by Highland.

Students, parents and businesses also think Highland’s programs are affordable and accessible for students of the counties.

But the study also revealed areas of continued improvement mostly centered around training students to fit business needs.

Responders said Highland should continue to work with workforce development agencies to determine training needs in order to train students for available opportunities in the workforce.

Added programs to help people get jobs could include graphic, visual and media communication; construction technology and health information technology.
