- Description:
- Encyclopedia article about Georgia Northwestern Technical College. In July 2009 Coosa Valley Technical College and Northwestern Technical College consolidated operations to form a new institution called Georgia Northwestern Technical College. The merger was one of several designed to reduce administrative costs and improve student access to programs within the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG). The mergers integrated the colleges' administrations and their local boards of directors, with all campus locations remaining open. The main campus of one college within each merger was designated as the administrative campus, serving as the home of the president's office, and a provost was assigned to oversee daily operations at the other campus(es).
