Northeastern Technical College (NETC) is pleased to announce the addition of Lacie Covington as an Administrative Specialist in the Trio Student Support Services department.
In her position, she assists and provides support to the TRIO program coordinator, counselor, and peer tutor coordinator. In addition to maintaining records and producing reports, Covington helps coordinate activities and programs that help NETC students find success.
Covington is from Marlboro County and a recent NETC graduate. Completing her degree in Computer Technology in 2019, she fully understands the obstacles many students face and must overcome to obtain a college degree. As a student, Covington experienced firsthand the impact employees can have on a student's success. She attributes much of her academic success to the support she received from employees here at NETC. She looks forward to sharing that same energy with students as they navigate their educational journeys.
Before joining the team as a staff member, Covington spent two and a half years working as a work-study student for NETC Financial Aid Office. NETC has provided many opportunities for her to grow. Having the opportunity to grow professionally at the college she attended is special.
"NETC is a college where people genuinely want everyone to succeed," Covington said. "Whether you are a student or an employee, everyone is nice and available to help."
She shares this thought with those thinking about pursuing higher education. Education is the passport to the future; tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today. Never stop learning.
TRIO Student Support Services at Northeastern Technical College helps students find success by providing services that navigate the obstacles that make getting a college education challenging. Tutoring, educational counseling, skill-development workshops, and cultural development are available for students. For more information, call (843) 921-6900.
