Warranty of Graduates

As a demonstration of our confidence in the quality of our programs and in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG), Atlanta Technical College warrants every graduate of our technical college programs offering a technical certificate of credit, diploma, or associate degree. The warranty guarantees that the graduate has demonstrated the knowledge and skills and can perform each competency as identified in the industry-validated Standard or Program Guide. Any program graduate who is determined to lack such competence shall be retrained at no cost to the employer or the graduate for tuition or instructional fees.

A warranty claim may be filed by either an employer in conjunction with a graduate or a graduate if the individual is unable to perform one or more of the competencies contained in the industry-validated Standard or Program Guide, including failure to pass a State of Georgia required licensing examination or national licensing examination.

This warranty is applicable only to graduates of a technical certificate of credit, diploma, or degree program who entered the program subsequent to the mandated standards implementation date. The warranty shall remain in effect for two years immediately following the date of graduation and shall be honored by any technical college that offers the program from which the individual graduated.

Additional warranty information is available on the Atlanta Technical College website. The college contact person is the Director of Student Services who may be reached at 404.225.4446.
