MEDIA RELEASE: Paducah, KY (08/23/2017) — It's not too late to register for the fall semester at West Kentucky Community and Technical College. A variety of late start classes are available between now and October.

"We have classes available for students who want to begin classes now," said Dr. Renea Akin, WKCTC interim vice president of enrollment. "Classes range from four weeks to 16 weeks and all places in between."

A full list of late start class offerings can be found on the college Web site at https://secure.westkentucky.kctcs.edu/ScheduleSearch/Spring_LateStart.aspx.

WKCTC offers more than 250 associate degree, diploma and certificate options with multiple career pathways in 48 academic and technical programs.

WKCTC online courses offer students the opportunity to pursue their educational goals at convenient times and locations. Students can enroll for classes anytime with the college's Learn on Demand option, a modular format with flexible start dates.
