Connect. It's About WHO You Know
You'll learn a lot while you're in sessions at the NTC: when you're part of a community of peers, you've got a classroom, support group, and playhouse all rolled into one. We'll take great care to create lots of opportunities for you to meet your peers and build your community while you're at the NTC. Below are just some of the ways you'll be able to interact.
