A little over one month ago, NECC’S Haverhill Campus was bustling with energy, excitement, and hope, as the graduating class of 2022 attended commencement.
Our team loved seeing the campus full of families, and friends proud of our graduates: we are incredibly proud of these graduates, too! Now that degrees have been officially awarded, here are some details about the students that graduated in Spring 2022!

First Generation Identifying Graduates
