GP Clarendon Donates $5,000 To Central Carolina Technical College

Georgia-Pacific’s Clarendon OSB Facility recently donated $5,000 to Central Carolina Technical College’s (CCTC) Foundation in support of the college’s mechatronics program, bringing the total that GP has donated to the program to $15,000. Through this donation, GP is showing their commitment to growing the region’s workforce by making sure that CCTC and its students have the support they need to be competitive in today’s ever changing job market.
Mechatronics is an interdisciplinary field that combines mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering to create systems that help facilities run more efficiently and safely. With manufacturing advancing rapidly more every day, workers are now needing a broad range of skills in order to meet today’s high demand for skilled laborers. Through initiatives like CCTC’s Mechatronics program, students are able to learn skills that will translate directly to high-demand careers in the area.
