A large group of people are seated at tables in a conference room, facing a speaker at the front. Attendees are dressed in a variety of clothing, and some are taking notes or looking at papers. The room is well-lit with warm-toned walls and patterned carpeting.

About 30 people posing for a group photo at the front of a large room. Projector screens behind them read "HEC. NCDOT - ITRE. Highway Engineering Concepts. Fall 2024 Class Graduation. Wednesday, February 5th, 2025. Duke Energy Hall at Hunt Library. Raleigh, North Carolina."

We recently celebrated our Fall 2024 FEP and HEC graduations. This cohort of @ncdot.bsky.social personnel is largely based in Western NC, and persevered through major disruptions from Hurricane Helene to complete these rigorous programs. Please join us in congratulating them!
