The Education Access Cable Channel
on Northland Cable Channel 9 provides local and regional
programming for Greenwood County
residents. Through an agreement
with Greenwood County, Northland
Cable Television makes Channel 9 available to local
educational institutions that wish to present
shows of an educational nature. This is
not a "local access" channel. The
channel's management is housed at Piedmont Technical College which
also coordinates programming feeds
for other local educational
institutions wishing to provide programming.

Presents is a series of 30-minute programs
developed and produced by Piedmont Technical
College to deliver educational news to
