Chattahoochee Technical College

It is governed by the Technical College System of Georgia and has eight campuses in the north-northwest metro-Atlanta area, and another just outside the region.

Originally named North Metro Technical Institute, the college was in Acworth, GA, and officially served Bartow and north Cobb counties, but was also positioned to serve the populations in Cherokee and Paulding counties.

During the early 2000s, three buildings were added on the other side of Sandtown Road, within the Marietta city limits.

The campus was donated to Cobb County by the family of Frank Gordy, proprietor of The Varsity restaurant in Atlanta.

It shares a parking lot with the adjacent Mountain View Aquatics Center, an indoor public swimming pool run by the county.
