Midlands Technical College received a $6.0 million Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration under the Community Project Funding/Congressionally Directed Spending program (CFDA 17.289), awarded July 1, 2025, with completion targeted for June 30, 2028. The award supports comprehensive workforce development and career training initiatives spanning STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), healthcare, agriculture, and manufacturing sectors across South Carolina. The grant enables the institution to deliver education and training programs with a particular focus on underrepresented, low-income, and first-generation college students.

Through its role as both a prime grantee and subrecipient, Midlands Technical College leverages this funding in partnership with state agencies including the SC State Board for Technical and Comprehensive Education, South Carolina Department of Education, University of South Carolina, and South Carolina Department of Employment and Workforce. The grant funds the delivery of career and technical education training, tuition assistance, supportive services, professional development workshops in STEM education, and staff development initiatives. These activities collectively strengthen the institution's capacity to provide postsecondary education access, workforce preparation, and student support services to vulnerable populations across the state.
