What are we here for?
Our mission is to provide students with an understanding of the concepts, principles, and techniques of computer networking and computer programming which will prepare individuals for industry recognized certifications and entry level positions in the field of computer technology.
Local IT managers and knowledge workers serve on the CPT department's advisory committee. The committee meets at least twice a year to identify technology trends, review curriculum and equipment, and make recommendations for infusing new technology in our curriculum. The advisory committee also assists with internships for students and job placement for graduates.

Florence-Darlington Technical College has opened many doors for me by providing hands-on training in diverse areas. Upon graduating from Tech, I was able to find a job with the skills I had learned and the strong computer technology background I had gained. FDTC has given me the opportunity to use the knowledge that is essential in the computer field and the values and determination to expand my knowledge and experience. I currently work with ACS Technologies as a Software Tester. This position entails writing, executing, and analyzing testing plans for web and windows based applications. ~Patrice Bethea, Quality Assurance Analyst-Software Tester, ACS Technologies, Florence SC, 2005 FDTC Graduate
