Inter-Club Council
Students have a voice in campus affairs through the Inter-Club Council. The ICC is a Piedmont Technical College organization composed of one representative of each active and approved student club and organization. The purpose of ICC is threefold: to provide input to the administration and give students a voice in the governance of the college; to help plan events and activities for students; and to provide leadership opportunities for members and other students.
Presidential Ambassadors
Second-year students selected to represent Piedmont Technical College are chosen on the basis of their leadership ability, academic achievement, college involvement and their desire to assist other students. Presidential Ambassadors represent the college at various functions on and off campus each year, speak to visiting groups about their college experience, lead campus tours and serve as new student orientation leaders. If you are interested in becoming an Ambassador, visit the Student Success Center or the Presidential Ambassador page.
