Fast Facts and 2015 College Directory Fast Facts A TCSG Education is for Everyone The 23 colleges of the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) are Georgia's top resource for skilled workers. TCSG offers world-class training in 600 associate degree, diploma and certificate programs to students trained on state-of-the-art equipment by instructors who are experts in their fields. TCSG partners with companies through Quick Start, the nation's top customized workforce training program, and through its individual colleges, who work with local industry to provide workforce and training solutions. No one is ever too young or too old to attend a TCSG college: 30% of TCSG students are considered traditional college students who are 21 years of age or younger; 38% are between 21 and 30 years old; 17% are 31 to 40; and 15% are 41 or older. The range of ages reflects the diversity of the student population at the TCSG colleges and the fact that no one should let age stand in the way of learning new skills and discovering new careers. Full-time or part-time? No problem: the TCSG colleges offer class schedules that are adaptable to students' needs. About one-third of TCSG students are enrolled full-time; two-thirds are part-time students who are taking advantage of convenient class times to balance class schedules with their job hours and personal responsibilities. There's online learning, too: 67,511 students enrolled in courses through the TCSG's Georgia Virtual Technical Connection in 2014. They received more than a half million credit hours of online instruction in a wide variety of programs. Education so Good, it's Guaranteed A TCSG education means small classes, hands-on experience and more instructor attention: TCSG colleges offer more than 600 programs and most feature low student-to-teacher ratios and hands-on learning using state-of-the-art equipment in real-world settings. TCSG programs supply the workforce for Georgia's strategic industries: TCSG colleges offer free tuition for world-class programs related to industries that have been identified as essential to keeping Georgia competitive in the global economy: aerospace, healthcare, life sciences including biotechnology, agribusiness, energy and the environment, and logistics and transportation. One in five TCSG students enrolled in strategic industry programs in 2014: almost 30% of all TCSG students are in programs related to careers in Georgia's strategic industries, including healthcare technologies, which is the number one field of study for TCSG students. TCSG graduates are headed directly into the workforce: TCSG graduates are bridging the national skills gap by answering employers' needs for talented professionals who can understand and master the latest technologies. 29,838 TCSG students graduated with either a technical certificate of credit, diploma or associate degree in 2014. It's guaranteed education: if an employer finds a graduate to be deficient in a TCSG-taught competency within two years of graduation, then the TCSG will fulfill its guarantee to the employer and student to retrain him or her at no cost. Of the 29,838 students who graduated from a TCSG college in 2014, only 8 required retraining under the two-year guarantee. 3 Fast Facts HOPE and Pell Launch Careers The cost to attend a TCSG college is among the lowest in the state: in 2014, the cost for a standard credit hour of instruction at the 23 TCSG colleges was $89; the average tuition (excluding books and fees) for a full, 15-hour semester course load at a TCSG college was $1,335. HOPE, Pell Grants can make a TCSG education even more affordable: 79,966 TCSG students used Georgia's HOPE tuition assistance (HOPE Grant, HOPE Scholarship, and Strategic Industries Workforce Development Grant) to attend a TCSG college in 2014. In addition, almost 85,000 TCSG students used the federal Pell Grant for their education.

TCSG students used $75.6 million in HOPE funding in 2014: TCSG students represented 44% of all of the HOPE recipients (TCSG colleges and University System of Georgia as well as in-state private colleges and universities) in Georgia in 2014. TCSG students accounted for 14% of the HOPE dollars spent in Georgia during the year. 2014 HOPE Students 7% Private 2014 HOPE Dollars 14% 8% Private TCSG 44% TCSG 49% USG 78% USG Total GA students receiving HOPE: 190,854 Total HOPE funds awarded: $529,725,817 Source: Georgia Student Finance Commission 4 Fast Facts TCSG Graduates Years 2011 and prior are on the quarter system; years 2012 and after are on the semester system. Academic Year 2012 does not include the summer 2011 transition quarter. The TCSG is dedicated to being part of a more seamless system of higher education in Georgia: working closely with the University System of Georgia and the state's private colleges and universities, the TCSG is opening better pathways for student success by expanding new articulation agreements that allow for the easier transfer of college credits. TCSG Awards Conferred by Level Years 2011 and prior are on the quarter system; years 2012 and later are on the semester system. 2012 includes data from the summer 2011 transition quarter. (Note: some students receive more than one award during the year, so the total awards conferred may sum to more than the unduplicated graduates). 5 Fast Facts Credit Hours Taught at TCSG Colleges Years 2011 and prior are quarter credit hours; years 2012 and after are semester credit hours Academic Year 2012 does not include the summer 2011 transition quarter. (1 semester credit hour = 1 quarter credit hour x .6667) TCSG High School Enrollment (Includes Dual and Joint) Years 2011 and prior are on the quarter system; years 2012 and after are on the semester system. Academic Year 2012 does not include the summer 2011 transition quarter. 6 Fast Facts Enrollment Offers Opportunities Georgians looked to the TCSG colleges for training in state-of-the-art skills and new careers after their jobs were impacted by the Great Recession: which was a major factor that led to a 30% surge in TCSG enrollment between 2008 and the all-time record of 197,059 students in 2010. Enrollment in 2014 has returned to pre-recession levels. TCSG Credit Enrollment and FTE (Full Time Equivalent) Years 2011 and prior are on the quarter system; years 2012 and after are on the semester system. Academic Year 2012 does not include the summer 2011 transition quarter. Georgia's high school students are jump-starting their college education (and saving on college tuition at the same time): in 2014, more than 8,800 Georgia high school students took classes through the TCSG colleges' dual and joint enrollment programs, earning both high school and technical college credits. The programs are mostly state-funded, so gaining college credits before completing high school means ambitious students can graduate from college sooner and spend less on college tuition. Complete College Georgia Changes Lives The Technical College System continues to proactively meet the challenges of the future. By 2020, more than 60% of jobs in Georgia are projected to require a college certificate or degree. Presently, however, only 42% of the state's young adults have earned a college credential, creating a need for an additional 250,000 graduates. Governor Deal and higher education administrators recognize that the state must do more to make it easier for Georgia adults to return to school and complete their degrees, and have charged TCSG along with the University System to meet the goal of graduating an additional 250,000 students by 2020. To accomplish this objective, the Governor launched the "Complete College Georgia" initiative in 2011. TCSG is meeting its benchmarks through enhanced articulation and transfer agreements, workforce development grants for certain strategic industries, the establishment of student navigators, expansion of its outreach to the military, and through "Go Back. Move Ahead," a campaign to encourage Georgians who have completed some college to return and finish their degree or certificate. 7 Fast Facts Largest Colleges: 2014 Credit Enrollment Chattahoochee Technical College Central Georgia Technical College Gwinnett Technical College West Georgia Technical College Georgia Northwestern Technical College Southern Crescent Technical College Atlanta Technical College Savannah Technical College Athens Technical College Georgia Piedmont Technical College 15,755 12,165 10,088 9,844 8,249 7,198 7,135 7,097 6,349 6,241 TCSG Graduates are In-demand TCSG students enjoy high job placement rates: U.S. Department of Labor data confirms the job placement rate for TCSG graduates is consistently at or above 84%; additional college data indicates that the placement rate is above 98% when self-employed entrepreneurs and students who continue their college education at a two-year or four-year college are included. TCSG: Driving Jobs and Economic Impact Communities throughout the state benefit economically from $1.2 billion in spending either directly or indirectly related to TCSG's colleges. A Selig Center study of economic data for 24 colleges in the 2012 fiscal year also found that the technical colleges' spending results in close to 15,000 public and private sector jobs. For each job created on a TCSG college campus, one off-campus job exists because of college-related expenditures. One in every 264 non-farm jobs in Georgia occurs because of spending associated with a TCSG college. While the study did not take into account the value of increased earnings of TCSG graduates, the colleges' role in helping the state to attract and retain companies with high-skill, goodpaying jobs, or the impact of Quick Start, these factors also represent TCSG's contributions to a thriving economy in Georgia. 8 Fast Facts The Nation's Best Workforce Training TCSG is dedicated to providing the customized workforce training needed by Georgia's businesses to stay competitive in today's global economy. Quick Start, an arm of TCSG and Georgia's internationally acclaimed workforce training program, provides customized training free-of-charge to qualified new, expanding or existing businesses. In addition, the economic development offices at each technical college work every day to make sure their local companies have the customized, contract training they need to keep their workforces' skills up-to-date and cutting edge. For more than 40 years, Quick Start has been helping Georgia win new companies and support existing industry with its customized workforce training provided free of charge to qualified companies. Quick Start has been named No. 1 for five years straight by site location consultants surveyed by Area Development magazine. Before that, other publications ranked Quick Start at the top, making it No. 1 overall for the past 15 years. Since its inception in 1967 through FY14, Quick Start has trained 1,132,720 Georgians through 6,650 projects. In Fiscal Year 2014, Quick Start delivered 123 customized workforce training projects, helping create or retain 10,024 jobs. Companies from 18 countries represented 35% of Quick Start's projects. Of these projects, 53% involved new locations and 47% were for existing Georgia companies. Overall, 70% of Quick Start's FY14 projects, representing 89% of its trainees, were located outside metro Atlanta. While Quick Start has extensive experience delivering workforce training in a broad range of industry sectors, including biotechnology & healthcare, warehousing & distribution, and agribusiness, 88% of its FY14 projects supported Georgia's advanced manufacturing operations, the foundation of the state's economy. 6,928 Created 3,096 Saved 10,024 jobs were created or saved with Quick Start's help in FY 2014 9 Fast Facts A Vision for a Fully Literate Georgia Adult Education The TCSG Office of Adult Education provides adult education programs that enable adult learners to study for and earn a GED diploma. GED graduates are encouraged to transition to college and improve their lives by being productive members of Georgia's workforce and their local community. TCSG Adult Education is serving tens of thousands of Georgians: in 2014, almost 70,000 Georgia adult learners took part in Adult Basic and Secondary Education, GED instruction and testing, and English as a Second Language programs. GED diplomas awarded: 15,039 adults earned their GED diplomas in 2014. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, a person with a high school or GED diploma earns approximately $10,000 more annually than a non-high school graduate; that translates to Georgia's 2011 class of GED graduates seeing their combined earnings potential increase by almost $170 million. The goal is for a fully literate Georgia, but there is more work to be done: it's estimated that 1.2 million adults over the age of 18 in Georgia have less than a high school education. There are 36 Georgia counties where 30% or more of adults do not have a high school or GED diploma. Adults Without a High School Diploma or GED 30% and Above 126,906 15 - 29% 671,427 Less than 15% 435,027 Total: 1,233,360 2005-2009 American Community Survey (Educational Attainment 18 and Over) 10 Fast Facts Enrollment in TCSG Adult Education Programs All ABE, ASE, and ESL students with an assessment, regardless of the number of hours attended; and all work-based project learners with attendance. Georgia launched the new GED program in January 2014: developed by the national GED Testing Service in Washington, D.C., it aligns the GED program with college and career readiness standards and provides the academic rigor necessary for the increased demands of the job market. The GED test is now computer-based and can be taken at any one of the 57 stateapproved GED testing centers. The test has four content areas: Reasoning through Language Arts, Mathematical Reasoning, Science, and Social Studies. Number of GED Graduates This data includes all GEDs awarded in Georgia; it is not limited to only students enrolled in an Adult Education program. 11 Fast Facts TCSG Revenue Sources Have Shifted System Budget The Great Recession forced austerity moves in all of state government: like all other state agencies, the TCSG received its share of austerity cuts during the Great Recession and its aftermath. State funds are no longer the largest part of the TCSG budget. The system is relying more on other funding sources, primarily tuition and fees: as a result, the tuition for a credit hour of instruction at a TCSG college, which was $54 in 2008, has risen to $89 in 2014. FY04 TCSG Revenue FY14 TCSG Revenue Other 26% Federal 13% State 62% Federal 9% Other 49% State 43% Mergers: Efficiencies Made, Millions Saved Eight TCSG college mergers between 2009 and 2014 have created larger, more efficient colleges: the mergers save $8.5 million annually in administrative costs while increasing student access to a wider range of learning opportunities. No colleges were closed and all of the pre-merger campuses remain open and vitally important to the students, businesses and communities that they serve (merged colleges in parentheses): Chattahoochee Technical College (Chattahoochee Tech, N.
