Our Alumni:

Rachel Garraway-Perez
BCTC helped me acquire leadership positions, work on my people skills, and gave me a head start in college knowledge.

Tim DeAcosta
BCTC taught me how to use and maintain manual and CNC machines that I use every day. I also learned how to do longhand programs on the cnc machines as well as the basics on CAD/CAM software to draw and program parts. BCTC taught me how to do my job efficiently yet safely.

Julia Bouchard
I owe everything I know to the horticulture program. I learned nearly every aspect and skill of floral design which includes names of flowers, types of arrangements, flower placement, spacing, color coordination, shape and size, and proper customer service skills.

Haylee Carr
I was a standout candidate for the position because the BCTC Dental Occupations Program prepared me to take and pass the DANB Radiology Certification; which is needed to be employed as a dental assistant in the field.

Brad Nelligan
I enjoy my job every day and I would not be working for such a great company if it wasn't for my plumbing instructor and BCTC.

Mike Knowles​
BCTC connected me with an experienced instructor in my field of interest that gave me professional opportunities while still in high school.
