The Berks Career and Technology Center (BCTC) was founded in 1968 and is regarded as one of the premier career and technical education facilities in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, largely due to the outstanding performance and success of our students. BCTC operates two campuses, each situated on more than 23 picturesque acres in Berks County.

BCTC provides high-quality technical education and career preparation to meet the needs of today’s high school students and adults. The school serves 16 public school districts, numerous nonpublic schools, and the citizens and businesses of the Berks County area. The Career Center is governed by a Joint Operating Committee comprised of school directors from each of the 16 sponsoring school districts. With campuses located in Leesport and Oley, we are conveniently located to serve our students.

BCTC operates as a school of choice, designed for students who are seeking to enhance their educational program with a highly relevant career and technical experience that is connected directly to business and industry. Over 400 business and industry advisors review and update the school’s educational program annually. The BCTC experience provides students with a blend of classroom theory, technical applications in state-of-the-art laboratories, and actual off-campus work-based experiences. Students learn technical skills and earn nationally recognized industry certifications. They apply reading, writing, mathematics, science, communications, and technology in a way that has personal meaning and career relevance.
