Leaders from Montreat College’s School of Adult and Graduate Studies (AGS) and Fayetteville Technical Community College (FTCC) met on Nov. 21 to sign a cybersecurity articulation agreement, opening new pathways for academic advancement for FTCC students.
This collaborative initiative enables FTCC graduates with a Systems Security & Analysis associate degree to seamlessly transition into Montreat College’s nationally recognized Bachelor of Science program in Cybersecurity through Montreat’s AGS program. The articulation agreement reflects the shared commitment of both institutions to empower students with the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in the dynamic landscape of cybersecurity.
Dr. Gratton, Dr. Paul J. Maurer, president of Montreat College, and Dr. Robert Roth, Interim Associate Dean for Adult and Graduate Studies, represented Montreat College’s School of Adult and Graduate Studies at the signing and Dr. Mark A. Sorrells, president of Fayetteville Technical Community College, signed on behalf of the College.
“This partnership is another positive step towards addressing the growing demand for skilled cybersecurity professionals,” said Dr. Paul Gratton, Interim Vice President for AGS at Montreat College in a press release. “We are excited to collaborate with FTCC to provide their graduates with a direct avenue to further their education and prepare them for success in an important and rapidly evolving industry.”
