DACC Students and Families,

Teamwork, leadership skills, and communication are important skills that we value as educators. Our instructors work hard to create projects that incorporate those essential skills, along with technical skills. The Engineering - Robotics, Automation, and Design program provided a great example of how this is done with their Lego Project.
Thank you to the Communications Intern Team of Bella Fredritz, Caroline Chubb, and Zane Soliday, for creating this video.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call us at 740-548-0708.
