State and local leaders in education and government will break ground Thursday at 2 p.m. on the site of the future Catoosa County Campus of Georgia Northwestern Technical College. Guests will be shuttled to the site from Poplar Springs Voting Precinct in Ringgold, Ga.
The college’s soon-to-be sixth campus will be located at the intersection of Highway 151 and Holcomb Road in Ringgold. The 12-million dollar facility will house a 60,000-square foot facility which will sit on 36 acres.
Design work first began in 2009.
Later this month, construction is set to begin on the college’s newest facility. Georgia Northwestern administrators anticipate moving into the Catoosa County Campus in mid-2016.
Among the programs the college will offer at the new campus will be Business Management, Computer Information Systems, Early Childhood Care and Education, Electronics, Logistics, Mechatronics, Industrial Systems, and Paramedic Technology.
