Testimonials
Voices of Alumni and Current Students
Being a graduate of the Chattahoochee Technical College Physical Therapist Assistant Program has changed the trajectory of my life and has enabled me to establish myself in a career that is challenging and rewarding. By virtue of the skills I acquired and the impeccable reputation of the PTA program, I have an abundance of options and opportunities within the field of physical therapy.
The rigorous curriculum at Athens Technical College and hands-on training opportunities that I received through the Physical Therapist Assistant Program, under the instruction of Dr. Ellen O'keefe and Dr. Diana Carman, have provided me with a strong foundation, equipping me with all the skills necessary to provide the most excellent care to my future patients.
I am a proud graduate of Ogeechee Technical College. The nursing instructors at OTC did an outstanding job preparing me for my career as a Registered Nurse. I highly recommend this college to anyone pursuing any career path!
