TCAT Murfreesboro Smyrna Campus

Bloomberg, the prestigious global news and financial services company, reported Thursday, July 6, that Tennessee’s public technical colleges, the state’s free tuition programs, and partnerships with business and industry “offer a glimpse of the future” in career training and workforce development.

The Tennessee Board of Regents today named the building housing the Tennessee College of Applied Technology Murfreesboro’s Smyrna Campus and Nissan Training Center as “The Bill Haslam Center” in honor of Gov. Bill Haslam.

The Board also approved a resolution summarizing Gov. Haslam’s work and accomplishments for higher education and Tennessee students – including the groundbreaking Tennessee Promise and Tennessee Reconnect programs – and expressing gratitude to him for his service as both Governor and chair of the Board of Regents.
