Our students’ own words speak volumes about BTC’s commitment to their success:
Michaelangelo Vega Ortiz, Auto Collision Repair graduate: “This program has really prepared me to get a job in the workforce, something I’m happy to do every day. The knowledge I’ve learned at Bellingham Technical College will really set me in the right direction.”
Alyssa Willis, Process Technology graduate: “Getting to complete a college degree isn’t something everyone gets to do so I feel proud of my hard work and blessed because I was given the opportunity to thrive. BTC has taken a lot of the uncertainty out of my future and I’ll always be thankful for all the help I was given along the way.”
Tate Garrett, Running Start student: “I love how hands-on my program is; for almost any given subject we learn, there is a physical example in our lab and often an opportunity to learn by practicing and doing. We are not removed from what we study. There is no shortage of tours, lab days, demonstrations, and models to keep us as close to the real experience as is possible.”
Great things are happening at BTC. Come and visit our campus anytime—we welcome you!
Sincerely,
Kimberly Perry, Ed.D
President
