Graduate Warranty

The warranty guarantees that the program graduate has demonstrated the knowledge and skills, and can perform each competency as identified in the industry-validated standard or program guide. Any program graduate who is determined to lack such competence shall be retrained at no cost to the employer or the graduate for tuition or institutional fees.

A claim against the warranty may be filed by either an employer in conjunction with a graduate or graduate if the individual is unable to perform one or more of the competencies contained in the industry-validated standard or program guide, including failure to pass a State of Georgia required licensing examination. This warranty is applicable only to graduates of a technical certificate of credit, diploma, or degree program who entered the program subsequent to the mandated standards implementation date. The warranty shall remain in effect for two years immediately following the date of graduation and shall be honored by Savannah Technical College.
