Retrieved 2 July 2013.〕 == History == The General Assembly of the State of Tennessee in 1963 directed the State Board for Vocational Education to locate, establish, construct, and operate a state-wide system of area vocational-technical schools. The intent of this legislation was to meet more adequately the occupational training needs of citizens and residents of this state, including employees and future employees of existing and prospective industries and businesses.〔M.L. Wolfe (1978). "The Vocational Education Act of 1963". Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. Retrieved 12 July 2013.〕 In July 1994, a name change was passed by the legislature, and the Area Schools became the Tennessee Technology Centers to better reflect the trend toward the more advanced, technological training needed to supply skilled employees. On July 1, 2013, Governor Bill Haslam signed Senate Bill SB0643 officially renaming all statewide technology centers to the Tennessee Colleges of Applied Technology.〔Tennessee General Assembly (2013). "Bill Information for SB0643". http://wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/BillInfo/Default.aspx?BillNumber=SB0643〕 The Tennessee College of Applied Technology-Newbern is a post-secondary and adult institution which provides programs to serve the training needs of a broad geographic area by providing technical instruction and skilled training in trade, technical, and other occupations. The instructional programs are designed to prepare persons for employment and to upgrade the skills and knowledge of persons who have already entered the work force. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tennessee College of Applied Technology - Newbern」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
