It has been difficult to find child care in Williston, a growing city, due to the growing demand. Several new childcare facilities were opened in 2022 and more are being constructed in 2023 to address this issue.

在过去的几年里, Williston Economic Development has actively participated in addressing new childcare spaces. Despite these efforts, the community continues to struggle to meet the demand for child care. The lack of childcare workers is an additional obstacle to overcome.

今年, Williston State College intends to convert the Crighton Building, 在冰球突破豪华版游戏下载校园, 去托儿所.

The Crighton 儿童保育设施 capital project also aims to create a secure and supportive environment that is especially created for young children while also providing crucial support to student-parents enrolled at 冰球突破豪华版游戏下载. This cutting-edge facility will offer top-notch childcare services and encourage parents to maintain a good balance between their professional and personal lives. Students pursuing elementary education with an early childhood endorsement have the chance to complete their practicum hours at the preschool housed within the childcare facility as a result of our collaboration with Valley City State University (VCSU). Students can also submit applications for other scholarships, such as the 师资短缺冰球突破试玩官方网站 VCSU提供. 请浏览我们的 网站 for more details regarding our partnership with VCSU.

In northeast Montana and northwest North Dakota, there is a scarcity of healthcare workers. Williston's local leaders have emphasized the importance of having enough options for healthcare training. By introducing cutting-edge equipment and simulated training environments, the healthcare training center is projected to expand healthcare programs at the school and improve instruction for aspiring healthcare professionals. Once construction gets going, it should take 12 to 15 months to finish the building.

The over $37 million facility will offer classes that local healthcare providers have sought. Radiation tech, surgical tech, and nursing are some of the proposed programs. 另外, University of North Dakota for behavioral health and Minot State for addiction studies are two other universities that have been sought out for partnership to address further healthcare needs for the region.
