BTC is proud of the key role it has to play in helping people in Somerset, Devon and the South West achieve their goals and train for successful careers. This is why we provide not only a wide range of subjects and industry-recognised qualifications, but progression routes that mean students can join us from school and achieve qualifications right up to degree level, all without leaving the area, and generating the high-quality professionals that our community needs and values. BTC is here to support the aspirations of local people and help realise the ambitions of our local area through education and achievement.
