DeKalb Tech Guarantees Graduates
Business and industry are directly involved with the Georgia Department
of Technical and Adult Education in developing the curriculum standards
for each of the programs taught at DeKalb Technical College. In turn,
DeKalb Tech offers its business partners a guarantee that graduates
will possess the skills and knowledge prescribed in the state's standards.
The guarantee assures you that, if any employee you hire, within two
years of graduation from a program under state standards, is found
lacking in the prescribed competencies, he/she will be retrained in
the competencies at any Georgia technical institute/college free of
charge.
If you are a student and are
trying to decide what career field to choose, please see a member of the Career Services Staff or access the Student
Success Center page and read about Focus Career and Educational
Planning.
