Big Sandy Community and Technical College has been changing lives for more than 60 years. The College promises to offer everyone in the region opportunities to
learn, grow and succeed as they make their home a stronger, more vital part of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
BSCTC is recognized for offering quality, accessible and affordable educational opportunities close to home. Known for its qualified and caring leadership, faculty and
staff, BSCTC provides personal attention and support to students, offering a quality education that fosters the ideals of lifelong learning and leadership.
Recently, BSCTC began a new chapter in its educational journey with a focus on learning-centeredness. The new focus has resulted in a culture where the learners'
needs are the driving force in decision making. Providing students with the opportunity to meaningfully shape their learning experience is just one way BSCTC
continues to expand the collaborative learning environment.

"I have served on the Board at Big Sandy
Community and Technical College for many
years. The College is a real asset to this
community and we would be at a great loss if
we didn't have BSCTC to provide education
and training to our people."
Over the past five years, enrollment at BSCTC has increased by 50 percent. New degree, diploma and certificate programs continue to
be added in response to local employer and workforce needs. Enrollment projections indicate that this trend will be ongoing.
