National Safety Month 🚨

Safety skills save lives — in every industry.

During National Safety Month, we’re highlighting the importance of hands-on safety training across BridgeValley programs including EMS, Fire Science, Manufacturing, Diesel, and Welding. From emergency response and workplace preparedness to equipment operation and industry standards, students gain the real-world skills needed to help keep themselves, their teams, and their communities safe.

🏈 Every first down is progress. Every credential is progress.

For the second year, BridgeValley Community & Technical College is proud to sponsor Friday Night Rivals and celebrate the students, athletes, workers, and communities moving West Virginia forward.

Success isn't built in a single play. It's built through steady progress, hard work, and determination—the same qualities that drive student success at BridgeValley. On the field, teams fight for every yard. In the classroom, students work toward careers that strengthen our communities and economy.

We want to thank WCHS Eyewitness News for the opportunity to be part of another exciting season of Friday Night Rivals.
