Dovie began with TECTA Orientation in September 2015. She started classes toward CDA coursework at Roane State in Spring 2016. She was awarded her CDA on February 2017 and is working on her Technical Certificate in ECED.
"TECTA funding has been a great help to me throughout this year. It enabled me to further my education with financial help while receiving support from their staff. They go way beyond just monetary help. Every encounter I have with the staff gives me the encouragement I need to keep going and gives the confidence that this was something that I can accomplish. Thanks to TECTA, I am looking forward to furthering my education more." - Dovie Mabe
TECTA at RSCC is funded by Center of Excellence for Learning Sciences at Tennessee State University through a contract with the Department of Human Services.
