WEEK 1
Hub for the Community
Dallas College is where education, workforce training and community support come together. Our campuses and centers are intentionally located where people need access the most.
Being a hub is about strategic partnerships that respond to community needs and create lasting impact. It’s no surprise, then, that Dallas College is central to our region’s growth trajectory and potential.
A College Built Around Community
Every strong region has a place where opportunity converges.
For North Texas, Dallas College is that hub — a connector between education and industry, between ambition and achievement, between preparation and prosperity.
We are preparing the workforce of tomorrow at 7 Campuses and 11 workforce centers offering a wide range of programs, degrees and student services.
With a $5.1 billion annual economic impact and over 3 million students educated in our 60 year history, Dallas College is woven into the region’s growth story. One in five jobs across North Texas carries a connection to the institution’s classrooms, labs or workforce partnerships.
Community College Awareness Month begins by recognizing that Dallas College is not peripheral to regional growth, it sits at the center of it.

Since 1965, more than 3 million students have come through our doors, each with their own goals and aspirations.
With seven campuses across Dallas County and 11 specialized centers for training and outreach, Dallas College meets students where they are — in their communities and in their lives. It’s more than a college. It’s a hub where opportunity connects, pathways begin and futures take shape.
