The WSSCC was formed in 2021 by educators from Delta County, Gunnison County, Montrose County, and Ridgway school districts who see the need for collaboration to better serve rural students with high quality career preparation both in our schools and through work based learning. By partnering with Colorado Mesa University - Montrose, the Technical College of the Rockies, and Western Colorado University they hope to expand access to career pathways throughout the region.
