THOMASVILLE- Brittany Bryant, Director of Marketing at Southern Regional Technical College, recently completed the Technical College System of Georgia’s Senior Leadership Academy, a transformative professional development program aimed at advancing careers within TCSG and its 22 colleges. Bryant was a participant of the program’s second cohort of individuals who have demonstrated exceptional leadership potential. A graduation ceremony in Savanah celebrated the achievements of the cohort.

“The graduates of our Senior Leadership Academy represent the future of leadership across our technical colleges,” said TCSG Commissioner Greg Dozier. “These talented individuals have demonstrated a strong commitment to student success and workforce development, and I am confident they will continue to drive positive change for Georgia’s communities.”

The Senior Leadership Academy is a flagship initiative of TCSG designed to identify, nurture, and equip leaders within the organization with the skills and knowledge required to excel in leadership roles. It is a year-long program divided into eight two-day sessions. The graduates received 160 hours of content, including 18 hours of leadership training through the University of Georgia Carl Vinson Institute of Government.

“Through the Senior Leadership Academy, we are not just investing in our staff; we are investing in the future of technical education in Georgia,” said President of the Executive Leadership Academy and Talent Initiatives at TCSG Dr. Alvetta Thomas. “These 26 graduates represent the vanguard of leadership excellence within the Technical College System of Georgia, and we are excited to see the positive impact they will have on our colleges and the communities we serve.”

The Academy is designed to provide participants with a greater understanding of the operation and administrative functions of TCSG and its colleges such as strategic planning, data driven decision making, budgeting, student affairs, compliance, workforce development, and legal services, among others.
