Texarkana College Electrical Technology Program Expands Through JATC Partnership

Texarkana College Trustees met for their regular board meeting September 29, 2025 and heard from Thomas Holt, Texarkana College’s Executive Director of Workforce Training, about an apprenticeship opportunity with TC’s Electrical Technology program.

Texarkana College has partnered with the Texarkana Electrical Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (JATC) to enhance the Electrician Apprenticeship Program. This collaboration combines TC’s classroom instruction with JATC’s long-standing apprenticeship model, offering participants both technical education and paid on-the-job training with licensed journeymen.

Holt said the partnership will strengthen skills that benefit the participants and our local community businesses.
