These campuses were originally part of Coosa Valley Technical College (CVTC), begun in 1962. It was named for the Coosa River, which flows through Rome, where its main campus is located. Northwestern Technical College (NTC, formerly known as Walker Tech) is now the Walker County campus, located in Rock Spring in extreme northwest Georgia. This occurred after a 2009 merger which also affected several other TCSG schools.
