Warner Robins, Ga. – Central Georgia Technical College (CGTC) is unpacking its newest program just in time for its Mini-Mester Session 2. Enrollment is currently open for courses that will begin on March 7, 2019, in the College’s Warehousing & Distribution Specialist program on its Macon campus, a program designed to meet the growth of the distribution industry in central Georgia.
The Certified Warehousing and Distribution Specialist Technical Certificate of Credit (TCC) provides instruction that will allow graduates to function safely in the warehouse environment. Students will learn workforce skills, warehousing and distribution processes, technology skills, and representative warehousing skills.
Sabrina Swann, the dean of Business & Computer Technologies at CGTC, said that once students complete the program they will have, “skills to qualify for employment in any warehouse distribution center seeking well-trained candidates.”
The courses will be housed on the Macon campus of the College inside the Charles H. Jones Advanced Technology Center, the premier educational hub for workforce training and economic development in middle Georgia.
“The Charles H. Jones Center has state-of-the-art manufacturing labs where students will receive training from qualified instructors with years of experience in the warehouse distribution field,” Swann said.
Courses in this program qualify for financial assistance through the Hope Career Grant. A student’s Hope Career Grant award is a fixed amount per term based on the student’s program of study and hours enrolled. Upon completion of the program, students will receive a guaranteed job interview with Tractor Supply and General Steel.
