Virginia Technical College

BBVA Ribbon Cutting

Virginia College in Birmingham held a ribbon cutting and open house March 12 to showcase its new Palisades campus and career center. Last fall, Virginia College began a phased moving process from its existing classrooms and offices into the new 90,000-square-foot campus facility at The Palisades Shopping Center on Oxmoor Road. This new state-of-the-art campus represents an investment of more than $8 million.

City officials, business leaders and community members gathered at Virginia College in Birmingham to learn how the career center is helping students and Birmingham businesses. Guests enjoyed cocktails and specialty hors d'oeuvres from Culinard, the Culinary Institute of Virginia College. Admissions counselors and instructors gave tours of the campus, classrooms, labs and Culinard kitchen.
