Career success isn’t one directional. It’s filled with twists, turns, and different routes to discover. How you arrive at the destination is your choice. Embark on your journey with Orange Technical College and see a world of opportunity unfold for your career.

OTC’s method of real-world, industry-based learning is making a comeback in American education. The need for skilled craftspeople and trade professionals is a direct response to the “skills gap” crisis in the current job market. Thousands of jobs can’t be filled and many of these positions do not require a college degree. Our accredited programs focus on skills development and work-based learning, setting the foundation for a future of unlimited potential.

College or career?

In today’s unpredictable economy, it’s important to encourage our youth to take their education seriously, whichever route they choose. At Orange Technical College, we believe that education should be reactive to what’s happening in the job market, which is why our accredited programs are built and taught by industry leaders and professionals.

At OTC, we’re changing the lives of Central Florida families with quality, accredited education that’s effective and affordable, giving students the tools they need to become top job candidates for the careers of today and tomorrow. At OTC, students graduate faster, learn more career-ready skills, and are likely to finish their programs debt-free. In today’s evolving education environment, more families are realizing that a four-year degree isn’t the only gauge for career success. What is a determining factor is skill, confidence, and hard work—and that’s what we provide our students at OTC.
