Message from the President

I have always believed that technical colleges are not only in the education and training business, but in the “changing lives” business. Students come to Lake Washington Technical College for a new start on life.

Our faculty and staff are all committed to help you achieve your dreams and career goals. Our college features a “hands-on” learning environment, small class sizes and numerous, affordable degree options in high-demand fields.

In addition, we continuously look for new ways to improve your college experience, including new buildings, new equipment, new technology, new programs and new transfer opportunities.

Our goal is to see you succeed. Come join us and become part of the Lake Washington Technical College family.
