Southeastern Community College (SCC) will be partnering with a cutting edge information technology company to hire IT specialists locally. Provalus hopes to expand to Columbus County and bring more than 200 jobs to the area.
According to the company’s website they are uniquely purpose-driven, transforming communities from the inside out. They’re elevating communities by developing undiscovered talent in rural towns across the U.S. to deliver technology, business, and support services.
