The present members of the Spartanburg County Committee for Technical Education shall continue to hold office as members of this commission for the terms for which they have been appointed, and the new members thereafter are appointed by the Governor for terms of four years each, upon the recommendation of a majority of the Spartanburg County Legislative Delegation. Each of the seven school districts of the county shall have one member, four members must be appointed from the county at large. Of the four at-large members, no two members may be from the same district. The Chairman of the Spartanburg County Planning and Development Board and the Chairman of the County District Superintendents of Education or a designated alternative superintendent are ex officio members. The commission shall meet as soon after appointment as practicable and shall organize by electing a chairman and other officers as it considers necessary. Thereafter, the commission shall meet upon the call of the chairman or a majority of its members. It shall make periodic reports of its activities and progress to the legislative delegation and the board of education."

(2) technical training programs primarily designed to train high school graduates as technicians for initial employment in industry; and (3) provide trade extension courses to persons who desire employment in industries and also to those presently employed who wish to improve their skills.

The commission may purchase or lease equipment, hire personnel, including a president and instructors, enter into contracts, make regulations, and do other things necessary to carry out the provisions of this act, or to qualify to receive state or federal aid under any present or future statute, policy, or regulation.
