On Thursday, April 22, 2025, TCAT Livingston proudly held its Spring 2025 Graduation Ceremony, celebrating the accomplishments of 70 students representing 13 counties across the region.
Each year, around 300 students graduate from TCAT’s full-time programs. While not every graduate chooses to participate in a ceremony, those who do mark the occasion with pride, reflecting on the many hours of hard work and dedication it took to reach this milestone.
Graduates of TCAT Livingston are well-prepared for the workforce, with 82%–88% securing successful careers in their field of study. Many go on to land high-quality jobs with strong potential for advancement. Honors and National Technical Honor Society are marked next to the individuals that graduated with distinction.
