TCSG Connect

TCSG Connect provides students the ability to enroll in digital online courses utilizing faculty from TCSG colleges, allowing students access to courses that would not have been available during the desired semester at their home technical college.

For a student, taking a course offered through TCSG Connect is no different than other courses. A student enrolls in a TCSG Connect course through West Georgia Technical College. The course is 100% online and is taught by a TCSG college instructor. The student receives credit for the course the same way they would if they completed the course at West Georgia Technical College.

If you are a West Georgia Technical College student, then West Georgia Tech is your home college.

Students must be admitted to the College and register for TCSG Connect courses prior to the add/drop deadline indicated on the Academic Calendaropens a new window.
