In a continuous effort to meet the needs of our growing community, Craven Community College has undertaken several construction projects over the past few years. We will post periodic updates here as our campuses evolve.
Corporate Training Center
The Corporate Training Center will be located on our New Bern campus between Kelso Hall and Bate Hall. It will primarily be used for professional development as a flexible meeting space to conduct trainings or host educational meetings and seminars. This one-story building will consist of a large meeting space and several office spaces. It will allow for larger class sizes to meet or spread out if necessary.

Approval for this project was granted by the North Carolina State Construction Office on July 21, 2023. The anticipated completion date is February 2026. The college is working closely on this project with Waters Contracting Company and JKF Architecture. A groundbreaking ceremony will be held Tuesday, March 18 at 4 p.m.
