"At MDC, I was able to finish my flight training and quickly begin my career in the airline industry. I just want to express my gratitude to the donors for supporting me and changing my life. Without your generosity, some of us wouldn't be where we are today and, for that, we are grateful."

Programs Aligned to Workforce Demand

The Beacon Council's economic development initiative for Miami-Dade County, One Community One Goal, identified seven target industries with the most potential for growth based on local assets and industry trends. Miami Dade College's programs meet the education and training needs for all seven industries.
