History
The Biddeford Regional Center of Technology was established in 1969 with the goal that students who enroll acquire academic, career and industry-recognized technical skills that will prepare them for entry into the workforce and post-secondary education,[1][2] which has led to several community projects led and completed by Biddeford Regional Center of Technology students, including creating the 2018 emblem for the Coast Guard Academy.[3][4] Biddeford Regional Center of Technology has also partnered with York County Community College (YCCC)[5] and Southern Maine Community College (SMCC) to provide college credit and certifications for their programs.[6]
