The South Carolina Technical College Systems has been a model for the nation since 1961. In the 1960's, The Center for Accelerated Technology Training's (CATT) plan to help new and expanding plants "start-up in the black" attracted international attention.

More than 40 states and a number of foreign countries have sent representatives to study the success of the Technical College System in helping bring diversified, prestigious industries to South Carolina.

In meeting the needs of industry in South Carolina, the Economic Development Division through CATT has provided short term pre-employment training programs for preparing over 190,000 people for jobs in more than 1,550 facilities.

These start-up training assistance programs are temporary and are specially designed to meet the specific needs of the new or expanding operations. The Center for Accelerated Technology Training is operated under the management of the Economic Development Division on a statewide basis with the cooperation of the involved technical college.
