Windham Regional Career Center (WRCC)

What Windham Regional Career Center (WRCC) does

Windham Regional Career Center (WRCC) is a public career and technical education center operated by the Windham Southeast Supervisory Union (WSESD) and located at 80 Atwood Street in Brattleboro, Vermont. It delivers 12 CTE programs — Aviation, Automotive Technology, Business Management, Career Foundations, Construction & Architecture, Culinary Arts, Early Childhood Education, Electrical Technology, Forestry and Natural Resources, Health Careers, Manufacturing, and Protective Services/Criminal Justice — to high school students from five regional sending districts (Brattleboro Union High School, Leland and Gray, Twin Valley, Bellows Falls Union, and Hinsdale) plus adult learners. Programs are developed with industry advisory committees and use industry-standard equipment and software including SolidWorks, CAD/CAM/CNC, Motor Logic, Electude, and 3D printing, and produce industry-recognized credentials such as ASE, OSHA 10, ServSafe, NCCER Core, NIMS, LNA, FEMA ICS, and SolidWorks certifications.

Revenue is not commercially generated; funding flows through WSESU from public education budgets, per-pupil allocations from sending school districts, and state and federal CTE grants. No tuition is charged to students from partner districts, and dual-enrollment college credit is offered at minimal cost (~$100 per 3-credit course), with Vermont Student Assistance Corporation (VSAC) vouchers available to cover fees. The go-to-market motion is community-led: high school counselors at partner schools refer prospective students, WRCC conducts tours and information sessions, and adult learners enroll via the Ed2Go online platform.

The center is governed by a Regional Advisory Board spanning multiple Windham County supervisory unions plus Hinsdale NH, and its instructional staff of approximately 14–15 includes deeply credentialed practitioners (an Audi Master Guild/Porsche-certified automotive instructor, a former Naval Aviator with ~3,000 flight hours, a 25-year law-enforcement veteran, and a 30-year licensed electrician). Work-based learning placements with regional employers (Brattleboro Memorial Hospital, GS Precision, Fletcher's Auto, Twin State Truck Service, A.L. Tyler and Sons) extend the experiential learning model, and dual-enrollment partnerships with CCV, Vermont State University, Norwich University, SNHU, River Valley Community College, and Landmark College extend post-secondary pathways.
