Louisiana College - Young Memorial Campus

Originally known as “Trade Schools”, Louisiana’s present day Technical College System began with the establishment of the first campus in Bogalusa in 1930. Since 1965, LTC, Young Memorial Campus has provided quality training to St. Mary Parish for workforce development. The LTC, Young Memorial Campus has locations in Morgan City and Franklin to best serve St. Mary Parish. LTC, Young Memorial Campus delivers instructional programs which provide skilled employees for business and industry that contribute to the overall economic development and workforce needs of the parish and the state. The LTC provides individuals with quality and relevant learning opportunities consistent with identified student and business and industry needs within a life-long learning environment.

Young Memorial has been involved with training grants for decades. Presently, we are involved with the Incumbent Worker Training Program (IWTP) of the Louisiana Department of Labor utilizing millions in training dollars. The Incumbent Worker Training Program is designed to benefit business and industry by assisting in skill development of existing employees while increasing employee productivity and growth of the company. This initiative is expected to result in the creation of new jobs, the retention of jobs that otherwise may have been eliminated, and an increase in wages for the trained workers.

Interested companies are encouraged to contact the school at (985) 380-2436 (Morgan City) and (337) 828-1448 for details on any of our training programs.
