Interactive College of Technology

What Interactive College of Technology does

Interactive College of Technology (ICT) is a private, for-profit technical and vocational education institution founded in 1982 and headquartered in Chamblee, Georgia. The institution delivers career-focused training through seven physical campuses: four in the Georgia/Kentucky region (Chamblee, Gainesville, Morrow, Newport) and three in Texas (North Houston, Southwest Houston, Pasadena). ICT serves adult learners seeking career advancement, limited-English-proficiency populations, and military veterans through a portfolio of vocational programs spanning Business & Technology (Accounting, Business Information Systems, Business Management, HR Management, IT), Trades (Commercial Refrigeration, HVAC Residential, HVAC/R Technology), Medical Office Administration, and Vocational English as a Second Language (VESL) with tracks for Hispanic, Vietnamese, French, Chinese, and other language communities.

ICT's core technology platform is its proprietary CBT & DE (Computer-Based Training and Distance Education) methodology, which provides interactive computer-based learning. The institution supplements this with a student portal hosted at ict.campusivy.com for academic resource access and a multilingual website available in 17+ languages. The platform architecture is conventional LMS-based rather than AI-driven.

The institution operates a direct-to-consumer enrollment model, with prospective students applying online or in person. Revenue is generated primarily through tuition and educational services, with Federal Student Aid available to qualifying students, VA Benefits for veterans, and flexible payment options supporting enrollment access. ICT holds accreditation from the Commission of the Council on Occupational Education (COE), participates in NC-SARA for distance education reciprocity, and offers lifetime career placement support to graduates. The institution is privately held with no disclosed parent company, ownership structure, or institutional investors.
