Students find their place at RTC
Whether they want to advance their careers, earn transfer credits, or take college preparatory classes, Renton Technical College has a place for every student.
RTC is a nationally recognized college committed to helping our diverse student population succeed.
Our programs
RTC offers a wide range of short-and long-term career training programs, apprenticeships, college transfer options, and applied bachelor’s degrees in information technology. Some of our courses are offered in the evening or in a hybrid or online format to accommodate your schedule.
Our Guided Pathways model helps students find the right path and finish their programs faster. To make it simpler, we have grouped our programs into seven Areas of Study: Advanced Manufacturing, Business Management, Culinary Arts, Health and Human Services, Information Technology, and Transportation Technology. Our College and Career Pathways programs offer English, math, and high school completion courses to prepare students to transition into career training courses.
RTC is inclusive
We are a vibrant, inclusive community that welcomes students from all backgrounds and empowers them for success. We meet students where they are and move them toward greater opportunities. Our student body is nearly 70 percent students of color, and we welcome immigrants, veterans, high school students, and students with disabilities - anyone who wants to succeed in college.
RTC is affordable
From Workforce Education funding available for displaced workers to scholarships provided by the RTC Foundation, RTC is affordable. Our Financial Aid office will help you find a way to make college a reality.
