College is a modern, two-year college located at the northeast edge
of Norfolk, Nebraska, and serves residents of a 20-county area in
northeast Nebraska. Northeast is the only community college in the
state with one-and two-year vocational, liberal arts, and adult
education programs all on one main campus. From the merger of two
separate and distinct institutionsNortheastern Nebraska College and

become a unique college with its own identity. Northeast Community

opportunities that are responsive to the diverse needs of the

learning process enhanced through effective and professional
instruction. Northeast Community College promotes and provides
lifelong learning opportunities that encourage people to contribute

degrees, one-year diplomas, and certificates.

We look at the recommendations for improving completion rates in a new report issued by the Complete College Ohio Task Force, which includes financial incentives.
Although many students need some remedial education before beginning college coursework, statistics show dismal completion rates for those who begin in remedial classes. We take a closer look at the problem, as well as some of the ways colleges are tackling it.
