CGTC delivers associate degrees, diplomas, and technical certificates of credit across five academic divisions — Aerospace/Trade & Industry, Business & Computer Technologies, Health Sciences, Public Safety & Professional Services, and General Studies — supported by an underlying Blackboard-based eCampus platform serving 43% of students in online courses, plus specialized non-credit, adult education, and correctional facility programs.

The college's portfolio includes 12+ accredited programs spanning FAA-certified Aviation Maintenance Technology (14 C.F.R.

Specialized extensions include the statewide Re-Entry Services program operating in 13 correctional facilities, dual enrollment through CGTC Academy, and adult education (GED/HiSET, ESL).

CGTC's revenue model combines credit-program tuition and fees, continuing education, customized contract training through the Economic Development Division (1.3M training hours delivered to 330+ companies in FY 2017, representing 46% of TCSG total), and testing/certification transactions (GED, WorkKeys), with tuition set by the TCSG system and financial aid channeled through federal, state, and scholarship programs. The institution is governed by its own Board of Directors under TCSG administrative oversight, with the CGTC Foundation operating as a separate nonprofit fundraising arm. The leadership team includes President Dr. Ivan H. Allen and a roster of vice presidents and directors spanning academic affairs, economic development, adult education/reentry services, and the VECTR Center.
