The University of Arkansas Pulaski Technical College Foundation is set to receive a $93,500 grant from the Windgate Foundation. The grant aims to expand classrooms and labs, particularly benefiting the Practical Nursing Program at the UA-PTC Little Rock South site. The grant period spans from July 1st of this year to June 30th of next year.
With the additional resources, the college aims to increase enrollment in the program to 70 students by fall, up from the current reported count of 50 students. This funding marks a significant step towards enhancing educational opportunities and facilities for aspiring nurses in the region.
This provides students with enhanced learning environments and opportunities for skill development in the nursing field.
