Tri-County Technical College continues to grow, serving more than 9,000 students in various programs each year.

Heading into the new school year, the school has big expansion plans, especially for the Anderson campus. TCTC President Galen DeHay said plans are in the works to move and expand the automotive program to Anderson, adding diesel, heavy diesel, electric vehicle repair. The future also hopes to add a program in partnership with Bosch for working with hydrogen fuel cells.

A new, full, two-year program in mechatronics is also planned for the Anderson Campus, along with expansion of the lineman program and heavy equipment programs.

DeHay discussed the expansion and other achievements at TCTC in this interview with the Anderson Observer.
