Mission
The mission of the Department of Technical and Adult Education is to contribute to the economic, educational, and community development of Georgia by providing quality technical education, public library services, adult literacy education, continuing education, and customized business and industry training.Vision
Our vision is of a dynamic, unified system of technical education, public library services, adult education, and customized business and industry training using current technology and offering easy access to education and training for all Georgians. This system will be part of a seamless educational process in which students can efficiently transfer credits as they advance from secondary schools to technical institutes to colleges and universities and in which all Georgians can readily access information and advanced educational resources.We envision an educational system that develops a competitive workforce and quality communities, thus assuring Georgia's economic success in the global marketplace. The recognition this system will command throughout the state will make it the preferred educational option for that majority of adults whose career choices require qualifications beyond a high school diploma, for those companies that require customized training and retraining services, and for those seeking a lifetime of educational experiences.
