What Bridgerland Technical College does

Bridgerland Technical College (BTECH) is a public technical college operating under Utah Code Section 53B-2a-101 through 114 as part of the Utah System of Higher Education, headquartered in Logan, Utah, with a second campus in Brigham City. The institution delivers competency-based, employer-guided career and technical education to both secondary (grades 8-12) and post-secondary students across the Bear River Region. Its core offering is a portfolio of 30+ certificate programs spanning ten disciplines: Business/Computers, Construction, Design & Development, Food Services, Health/Dental, Manufacturing, Personal Care, Public Safety, Transportation, and Veterinary Technology, with a forthcoming Nail Technician program. Programs are aligned with industry certifications (ASE, PTCB, ACEN, POST, AHA, ASHP) and state licensing requirements, and are built in consultation with occupational advisory committees. Delivery is supported by a Jenzabar-based student portal (my.btech.edu) and Canvas LMS for course management.

BTECH's business model is hybrid. Core revenue derives from state appropriations, student tuition and fees, and federal student aid disbursed through Pell Grants (FAFSA, School Code 014257) to eligible certificate-program enrollees. Supplemental funding includes VA education benefits administered to veterans and dependents, institutional and foundation scholarships (Rocky Mountain Power, Cross Charitable Foundation), Custom Fit contracts with regional employers, and non-credit community education fees. The institution does not participate in Title IV loan programs, does not offer on-campus housing, and does not have athletics — resources are concentrated on instructional delivery and workforce development. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, combining high school counselor outreach, campus tours, dedicated Student Success Advisors, online enrollment, and employer partnerships.

The college is governed by a Board of Trustees and led by President K. Chad Campbell with a leadership team that includes Executive Vice President & CIO Lisa Moon, CFO Brandi Gittins, and CIO Alex Baltodano. Day-to-day operations are distributed across 30+ specialized department heads and program directors covering trades, healthcare, public safety, and technology disciplines, with approximately 101-250 employees in total. University articulation agreements with Snow College, USU, UVU, and Weber State position BTECH as a credit-transfer on-ramp to bachelor's degrees for the Bear River Region.
