According to NGTC acting President Dr. Mark Ivester, the demand for technical skills in the workforce is being noticed by our communities.

“More jobs in the Northeast Georgia area are requiring highly trained, skilled workers, and North Georgia Tech is a great, local resource to receive specific training for competitive jobs,” said Ivester. “It’s exciting to see the community looking toward technical skill training as an important way to meet today’s demand in the workforce.”
