Exciting Expansion: WGTC's Murphy Campus to Launch New Industrial Building with Community Programs

West Georgia Technical College (WGTC) will host a groundbreaking ceremony for its new Murphy Industrial Building on May 16, 2024. The event is scheduled at the Murphy Campus in Waco, GA, beginning with a cocktail hour at 4:30 p.m., followed by the ceremony at 5:30 p.m. The new facility will introduce trade and tech programs not currently available on campus.

The Murphy Industrial Building will include programs such as Commercial Truck Driving, Apprentice Lineworker, and Welding. The facility will feature a 40-booth welding lab, classrooms, and community engagement spaces. This expansion is part of WGTC's effort to increase educational offerings in industrial and manufacturing sectors.

Alongside the building's construction, WGTC has initiated the 'Spark the Flame' fundraising campaign to raise $1 million for equipping the new welding lab. This campaign reflects the college's commitment to providing advanced facilities and training for its students.
