The health, safety, and well being of our students, faculty, staff, and communities will continue to be Wiregrass Georgia Technical College’s utmost priority. Wiregrass will continue to follow the guidelines of the CDC and GDPH while allowing face-to-face instruction in classrooms, labs, and clinical settings.

Wiregrass plans to continue maintaining the highest quality of instruction and learning while maintaining a safe environment in the academic setting by continuing sanitation measures already in place, contact tracing processes when needed, and encouraging health and safety precaution strategies.

Students will be expected to comply with any preventive measures outlined by Wiregrass Georgia Technical College in accordance with the Centers for Disease Control, the Georgia Department of Public Health, and the Technical College System of Georgia in response to COVID-19.

Students are encouraged to continue the following mitigating strategies:

  • Practice proper hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette (e.g., cover cough/sneeze)
  • Wear a facecovering
  • Maintain social distancing when possible
  • Stay home if sick
  • Self-Report positive cases and possible exposures through the college-provided portal
  • Follow CDC and GDPH guidelines for vaccinated or unvaccinated individuals
