DeAnnia Clements Is the New President of Wiregrass Georgia Technical College in Valdosta

The Technical College System of Georgia has appointed DeAnnia Clements as the third president of Wiregrass Georgia Technical College in Valdosta, Georgia. She has served as interim president for the past six months.

The college enrolls just over 3,700 students, according to the most recent data available from the U.S. Department of Education. Women make up 65 percent of the student body.

Clements’ career in technical education began as an adjunct instructor for South Georgia Technical College in 1999. She would become a computer information systems instructor for East Central Technical College that later merged to become Wiregrass Georgia Technical College in 2010. At Wiregrass, Clements has served as dean of professional services and dean of allied health, associate vice president for academic affairs, and vice president for academic affairs.

“Wiregrass Georgia Technical College has had remarkable leadership throughout the years, and it is truly an honor to be selected as the college’s next president,” said Clements. “I am excited to continue building upon the foundation laid by past presidents and to deliver on our mission of developing a skilled workforce through world-class postsecondary education and training.”

Clements holds a bachelor’s degree in English from Valdosta State University and a master’s degree in computer information systems from Georgia Southwestern State University.
