In the early 1960’s, South Carolina created a system of technical colleges to serve as "a tool for economic development" within the state. Tri-County, which serves Anderson, Oconee, and Pickens counties, has grown from about 300 students in 1962 to approximately 6,000 today, making it among the largest of the 16 colleges in the South Carolina Technical College System. More than one-half million people have turned to the College to reach their career goals, and the Tri-County area has benefited significantly as a result.

The College follows an "open door" admissions policy and offers comprehensive academic and support services to help all who enroll meet their educational goals and achieve academic success. More than 65 diploma, certificate, and associate degree programs are offered in industrial and engineering technology, business and human services, health education, and university transfer. In addition, more than 250 different seminars and courses are offered through continuing education, serving approximately 13,000 students annually.
