President’s Message

A recent report indicated that Americans have confidence in public two-year colleges like Greenville Tech because they offer affordable programs that teach skills aligned with workforce needs while also providing pathways to a four-year degree and beyond. On our campuses, you’ll gain the relevant skills you need to reach your goals, whether that means entering the job market, moving up in your field, or saving money as you gain a foundation for further study.

Our mission is to transform lives through education, one student at a time. We focus on your success, providing the support you need from the day you enroll to the day you secure employment in your field of study or successfully transfer to a baccalaureate program. You’ll find instructors who work hard in the classroom and during office hours to ensure that you are comfortable with the material and resources that help you overcome any academic and personal challenges that might stand in your way.

For us, it’s all about results. We take pride in students who gain the confidence they need to achieve, graduates who inspire family members to follow in their educational footsteps, and employers who can expand and grow because of the talent we produce. Thank you for making the Greenville Technical College choice. I have no doubt that the education you complete with us will deliver for you in terms of employability, opportunities for advancement, and career satisfaction.
