The college is leasing 10,000 square feet of space in the Gibson Building, located at 11430 N. Community House Rd., Charlotte, with plans to have the facility up fitted into classrooms by mid-summer.
"The Ballantyne community is one of the fastest-growing areas of Mecklenburg County and has been for some time," explained Dr. Tony Zeiss, CPCC president. "As many as 200,000 Mecklenburg residents and 200 businesses call Ballantyne home, while several Fortune 500 companies have operations in the area. The college sees the need to serve this part of the county more effectively and will do so by having a physical presence there."
CPCC will open its Ballantyne Center by first offering corporate and continuing education classes.
