More than 80 professional degree and certificate programs, adult and continuing education courses, tuition waivers for senior citizens and a comprehensive counseling division are just some of what you will find at Southwest Georgia Technical College (SGTC).

With new programs being added all the time, the academics at SGTC are always expanding to meet current job market trends and to appeal to as many interests as possible.

Categorized by academic divisions, the degree and certificate programs at SGTC offer training in such fields as Business Management, Cosmetology, Crime Scene Investigation, Emergency Medical Services, Nursing, Pharmacy Technology and Medical Assisting.

Students who wish to get certified in a professional field in a matter of weeks or months may also take classes through continuing education.

SGTC also does its best to assist students with tuition costs. In addition to a school scholarship, which is awarded to eligible students, SGTC offers tuition waivers for qualifying senior citizens as well as other forms of federal and state aid.
