Atlanta Technical College (ATC) has officially broken ground on its Center for Transportation and Logistics (CTL).
The CTL will be located on 25 acres at the corner of Cascade Palmetto Highway and Cochran Road, donated by the Fulton County Board of Commissioners. The development includes a one-acre testing course, the first of its kind in Metro Atlanta, that is accessible to the public and serves as the only CTL testing site within the city.
According to a release from the college, the new center will increase enrollment capacity fivefold, introduce Class B box truck driver training, and offer expanded day and evening class options. Programs will include:
- Commercial Truck Driving
- Diesel Mechanics
- Supply Chain Management
- Warehousing
- Logistics Operations
- Procurement
Currently, ATC is the only college in Georgia offering CTL training without a dedicated facility and range, relying on rented parking lots. Industry support is critical to fully realize this transformative project.
“This groundbreaking marks a pivotal moment for Atlanta Technical College and the communities we serve,” ATC President Victoria Seals said in a statement. “The Center for Transportation and Logistics will not only provide cutting-edge training but will also open doors to high-demand, high-wage careers. We are committed to driving Georgia’s workforce forward and ensuring our students have the skills to thrive in this vital industry.”
