The Schuylkill Technology Center (STC) will host Open House events at both its North and South campuses on Wednesday, October 1, 2025, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.
This year’s theme, “Work Ethic Matters,” emphasizes the professional skills and personal qualities STC aims to instill in its students. The evening will bring together prospective students, current students, families, local industry partners, and post-secondary colleges.
At the South Campus in Mar Lin (15 Maple Ave), visitors can explore hands-on activities in programs such as Plumbing, Welding, Carpentry, Residential Industrial Electricity, Precision Machine Trades, Auto Collision, Culinary, Computer Information Systems, Marketing & Business Administration, Criminal Justice, Supply Chain & Warehouse Distribution, and Cosmetology.
The newly rebranded Supply Chain & Warehouse Distribution Program—formerly known as Logistics—will be showcased, offering training in picking, packing, forklift operation, and inventory management. Attendees can also meet Tom Wood, instructor of the Food Service Occupations Program, which trains students in a commercial kitchen environment for entry-level employment in the food industry.
North Campus Highlights
At the North Campus in Frackville (101 Technology Drive), programs on display will include Diesel, Automotive Technology, Outdoor Power Technology, Masonry, Carpentry, Electro-Mechanical Technology, Health Careers, Emerging Health Professionals, Culinary, and Early Childhood Care and Education.

In addition, STC’s Adult Education staff will be on-site to discuss training opportunities for adults in CDL, Automotive Technology, Medical Assisting, and Practical Nursing. Medical Assisting students will also provide free blood pressure screenings.
