Albany Tech to honor dual enrollment grads

Apr. 14—ALBANY — A special Albany Technical College live YouTube event will take place Thursday at 10 a.m. honoring the Dual Enrollment graduates from Albany Technical College.

Sixty-four students at ATC attending as dual-enrolled high school students will graduate with either an associate of applied science degree, a diploma, or a technical certificate of credit.

"COVID-19 has changed how we can recognize these students in person," officials with the college said. "We want to acknowledge their remarkable achievements and highlight their accomplishments. Albany Technical College is very proud of the accomplishments of the dual-enrolled students and looks forward to hearing of their great success."

Through the Georgia Dual Enrollment program, all Technical College System of Georgia colleges are seeing success, especially with students who move on to four-year universities to obtain higher-level degrees.

"The Georgia Dual Enrollment program is one of the best programs available for high school students, and we encourage local area students to talk to their parents and to take advantage of this opportunity," Albany Technical College President Anthony Parker said. "Albany Tech offers a chance to accelerate high school students into careers right here locally."
