More Than a New Facility: Building Hartsville’s Workforce with the Opening of TCAT

The opening of the new Tennessee College of Applied Technology (TCAT) Hartsville marks more than the completion of a new educational facility. It represents a significant investment in the students, employers, and communities that will shape the future of the region.
At 69,687 square feet, the new multi-disciplinary facility gives TCAT Hartsville expanded space to provide hands-on education and technical training for students preparing to enter today’s workforce. Reeves Young is proud to have served as the builder for a project that will help create new opportunities for students while supporting the workforce needs of the community for years to come.
More Than a New Facility
A building like TCAT Hartsville is designed to serve a purpose well beyond its walls.
As industries evolve and workforce needs continue to change, access to quality technical education becomes increasingly important. Facilities like this give students the opportunity to develop practical skills and prepare for careers while helping connect education with the needs of local employers.
The impact of that investment will extend far beyond the students who walk through the doors today. Each graduate who gains new skills, enters a career, or contributes to the local workforce becomes part of the larger story this facility was built to support.

Built for What’s Next
Projects that invest in education and workforce development are ultimately investments in a community’s future.
Bringing TCAT Hartsville’s new facility to life required collaboration between the college, design and construction teams, trade partners, state and local leaders, and the many people who worked together throughout the project. Every milestone represented another step toward creating a place where students can learn, train, and prepare for what comes next.
Reeves Young is proud to have been part of that effort and to see the doors officially open. While construction may be complete, the real work this building was designed to support is just beginning.
For years to come, TCAT Hartsville will help students build skills, employers build their workforce, and the community build toward a stronger future.
That’s the lasting impact of Building Better Livelihoods.
