History

Southcentral Kentucky Community and Technical College was established as Western Trade School in 1939 and was operated by Western Kentucky State Teachers College (later Western Kentucky University (WKU). In 1962, the school became independent of WKU, and underwent two name changes before joining KCTCS in 1997 and becoming Bowling Green Technical College.^[2] On December 7, 2012, the KCTCS Board of Regents approved a request to change the name to Southcentral Kentucky Community and Technical College, recognizing the fact that the college's accreditor, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, had designated it as a comprehensive community college and granted approval for it to award the Associate in Arts and Associate in Science degrees.
