Facilities

The Davidson County Community College Conference Center was designed for maximum flexibility. We can accommodate groups up to 260 or provide a comfortable, fully equipped executive conference room for 12 or fewer participants. For any size group under 260, our facility workers can arrange rooms in multiple dimensions. For example, we can open two of our 874-square-foot meeting rooms for theater seating of 120. There is a break room with vending machines on the first floor and a kitchen on the second floor.


Room Set-ups

The Coordinator, Conference Center & Community Engagement will coordinate all room set-ups with the DCCC Physical Plant Services Department. Once the meeting room has been set, the Conference Center does not have staff to change the set-up. All tables and chairs must remain within the conference rooms and may not be moved into the hallways or any other location within the building.
