The Technical College of the Lowcountry’s Transitioning Military Training (TMT) program has been selected as a finalist in the workforce development category for a prestigious 2015 Bellwether Award, which recognizes outstanding, innovative programs and practices that are successfully leading community colleges into the future. TCL’s TMT program seeks to help military members refine their skills to match the demands of today’s employers. The program currently provides training for aircraft mechanics, avionics technicians, and logisticians as well as placement services. All finalists will present at the Assembly on January 26, 2015, in Orlando, Fla., and one winner will then be selected from each category by a panel of national experts within each category. The winners will be announced on January 27 at the annual meeting in Orlando. Learn more about TCL’s TMT program at www.tcl.edu/tmt.
