Stanley Engineered Fastening has donated two enhanced video and audio conferencing systems to NICC.

The first Polycom HDX system will be installed at the NICC Cresco Center.  Stanley representatives recently visited the center to make the donation.

"One of the main reasons for donating these systems to NICC is our long-standing relationship with the college," explained General Manager Dale Leuenberger.  "We regularly partner with the college for various trainings, as well as leverage their graduates for our talent pipeline. This was a perfect way for us to further support the school, enabling broader communication and collaboration."

The Polycom HDX system technology will allow NICC students, staff, business partners and community members to communicate more effectively at distances, a challenge for community colleges in rural areas.
