Testimonials
“The Business Technology program has really changed the way I think about my personal life and work life. I have grown as a person and an employee. I have learned so much during my time at Chattahoochee Tech. I have learned about personal finance and how to correct an Excel spreadsheet. The most important thing I have learned is patience. My biggest success during this time is finishing the courses, graduating and getting my degree. Sometimes I thought this time would never come.”– Brooke Gaddis ‘19“The biggest thing I have learned in the Business Technology program is how many technical skills could be missing from a business person’s life that could make him or her more valuable to an employer or as an entrepreneur. Business Technology offers you things that make you an asset to any workplace, such as Microsoft office knowledge, records management knowledge, and others.”
– Michaela Brown ’15 ‘20
