Made possible by the bequest of the late Beulah T. Latta, the Paralegal Technology program has received a transformational gift that includes scholarships for students, a law simulation lab, and funding to upfit classroom space into a mock courtroom. This represents the single largest commitment the program has received in its history. The scholarships will enable the program to actively recruit new students and support current students. The addition of a law simulation lab and a mock courtroom elevates the program’s commitment and ability to deliver experiential learning experiences.

The Orange County Board of Commissioners approved a new fiscal budget this week that includes $11 million for an expansion to the existing Durham Technical Community College Orange County Campus building, a new position to support small businesses, and student scholarships for high school graduates and short-term training students.
The $11 million building expansion is spread over two years to support a 13,000 – 18,000 square-foot addition to the existing 40,000-square-foot, two-story Orange County Campus building, which opened in 2008. In recent years, Durham Tech leadership has strongly advocated for more space in Orange County given the need for more programming and workforce training options.
The expansion will provide additional space for training areas such as Emergency Medical Services, new Orthopaedic Technology and short-term healthcare courses, and Plumbing and HVAC courses. In addition, the expansion will provide space for Back-to-Work courses and Small Business Center program instruction, as well as additional areas for enrollment services, financial aid, and counseling.
