South Georgia Technical College will be offering a variety of class options Fall semester. There will be traditional online classes that allow students to continue their education remotely. The second option is the face-to-face or in-person classes where students return to campus for the traditional classroom setting with smaller class sizes and social distancing guidelines in place. The third option is a hybrid with some online portions and lab based classes that students need for critical hands-on skills to complete a program area. This will consist of smaller lab sizes and social distancing measures.
