Florence-Darlington Technical College (FDTC) partners with QuickStart to bring flexible, career-driven bootcamps to learners in South Carolina. These award-winning online programmes offer a direct path into high-growth technology fields, including cybersecurity, software development, data analytics and IT support.
QuickStart Learning, a global leader in cybersecurity and AI skills training, IT workforce readiness, and career development, has gained a new partnership with Florence-Darlington Technical College (FDTC) to offer accelerated, career-focused tech bootcamps to individuals across South Carolina.
QuickStart’s nationally recognised bootcamp platform brings decades of training experience and deep industry alignment to the FDTC’s learning community. Each bootcamp is built to deliver practical knowledge and job-ready skills that can be applied immediately when starting or pivoting into a new role in tech.
“We’re excited to join forces with FDTC to offer accelerated training that aligns with real career outcomes,” said VP of Partner Growth, Nick Suwyn. “Together, we’re enabling learners in the region to upskill their terms and to do so with confidence, support and a clear line of sight to employment.”
FDTC, a long-standing driver of workforce development in the Pee Dee region, sees this initiative as an important step forward to staying competitive in a digital economy. As South Carolina’s tech sector continues to grow, these bootcamps help fill a vital gap for learners seeking meaningful future-forward careers, with or without a four-year degree.
“This partnership helps us bring high-quality, industry-aligned training to our students and community,” FDTC Vice President of Workforce and Continuing Education, Dr. Rhonda Johns, said. “It’s an exciting step forward in providing relevant, accessible career pathways that meet the demands of today’s digital world.”
Students can enroll in five online bootcamp tracks, each offering real-world projects and guidance from expert mentors:
- Cybersecurity
- Front End Software Engineering
- Back End Software Engineering
- Data Analytics & Visualisation
- IT Technician
Enrollment is now open, with new cohorts launching throughout the year. FDTC alumni, current students and community members interested in building or advancing a tech career are encouraged to apply.
QuickStart offers a variety of payment options, including discounted upfront pricing, monthly installment plans, and access to workforce development grants and military education benefits.
