A Post-Secondary Technical Training Center

The primary emphasis of instruction at TTCW is that of skill development on "real hardware" and "live projects;" supplemented with related basic and technical information needed by workers in industrial, trade, business, and service type occupations. All training programs at TTCW are 2 years, or less, in length—providing a path into a meaningful career within the shortest time possible. The Center's success in job placement and feedback from employers indicate the validity of our training methods and curriculum content. Graduates are invited to participate in an articulation with Jackson State Community College, which results in 28-34 hours credit towards an Associate Degree in Applied Science.
