The Community College of Rhode Island (CCRI) recently hosted a delegation of emerging leaders from Japan and the Republic of Korea at the Westerly Education Center (WEC) as part of the U.S. Department of State’s prestigious International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP). The visit highlighted CCRI’s nationally recognized role in maritime workforce development and its designation as a Center of Excellence for Domestic Maritime Workforce Training and Education.

The Community College of Rhode Island is proud to once again join the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve and the Salvation Army in spreading joy this holiday season through participation in the annual Toys for Tots campaign. Every year, CCRI serves as a trusted collection site, rallying our community to ensure that children across Rhode Island experience the magic and warmth of the season.
