Located in beautiful northwest Washington, on the shore of north Puget Sound, Bellingham Technical College is a diverse community of students and faculty engaged in the pursuit of learning. At Bellingham Technical College, you will find exemplary faculty who, along with our dedicated staff, are committed to helping you achieve your educational goals and prepare for your career.
Bellingham Technical College certificate and degree programs have earned a well-deserved regional and national reputation of excellence. The College offers solid academic instruction and partners with business, industry and other educational institutions to ensure our programs meet current workforce and employer needs.
Bellingham Technical College (BTC) prepares students for careers in many fields, and our approach is high-tech, hands-on and student-centered. Business owners, corporate leaders and our students all agree that BTC is a first-rate workforce training institution. Annually we conduct a survey of current students and employers. Last year, the responses we received were consistent with those of many prior years: 98% of our students would recommend BTC to potential students and 96% of area employers are both satisfied with the workplace performance of BTC graduates and eager to hire more. Even in these challenging economic times, our graduates are still finding work.
Our goal is your success, now and in the future. Thank you for your interest in Bellingham Technical College and again, welcome to our campus.
Patricia McKeown, Ed.D
