The Bristol Technical Education Center, or Bristol TEC, is a technical school located in Bristol, Connecticut. It is part of the Connecticut Technical Education and Career System. Bristol TEC receives students from many nearby towns. [2]

Unlike other Connecticut technical high schools, 11th and 12th grade students attending Bristol TEC during high school also retain enrollment in their sending schools. [1] [3] If attending Bristol TEC during their senior year, students receive a diploma from their sending school and a training certificate from Bristol TEC. [3]

Bristol TEC offers trade certificates in seven technology areas: Automotive Technology, Culinary Arts, Electronics, Health Technology, HVAC/R (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration), Manufacturing, and Welding/Metal Fabrication. [4] Students can also earn high school credits in English, math, and social studies. Students may be hired into entry-level positions while still in school via the Work-Based Learning program. [5]

Bristol Technical Education Center is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) and the Council on Occupational Education (COE). [6]
