Pickens County Career & Technology Center

Pickens County Career & Technology Center The Pickens County Career & Technology Center offers over 26 different career and technical training Skelton Career Center.

In July of 2011, the Pickens County Career & Technology Center facility replaced B.J. Pickens County Career & Technology Center or CTC for short. The official name uses the ampersand (&) rather than the word “and”. The CTC logo is a vertical rectangle with four squares. A circle is formed at the intersection of the four squares. “Pickens County” is located at the top of the logo and “Career & Tech

nology Center” is located at the bottom. The initials C-T-C, located above the "Career & Technology Center", are an acronym for Career & Technology Center. The four squares inside the rectangle of the logo represent the four high schools of the School District of Pickens County. For highlight, the squares are outlined in black and each of the four high schools is represented by the official school color. The intersection of the four squares represents a crossroads. The students enrolled at the Pickens County Career & Technology Center are at a crossroads for making post-secondary decisions related to education, military, and career training CTC school colors are platinum and black. The platinum represents a higher than gold level of excellence.

Can branding influence what we think tastes best?

Marketing students put it to the test with a blind taste test of several waters and colas. The surprising result? Most of us couldn’t correctly identify the brands we thought were our favorites!

It was a fun way to see firsthand how branding and brand loyalty can influence consumer choices.
