- Dakota County Technical College was created by the 1969 Minnesota Legislature and approved in 1970 by the Minnesota State Board of Education. Programs and facilities of Dakota County Technical College meet standards established by the Board of Trustees of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU). All faculty are licensed. Local advisory committees evaluate and approve all program majors.
- Our main campus is located in Rosemount, Minnesota, just a half-hour from the Twin Cities. We also have five other conveniently-located sites in Bloomington at the Mall of America, Apple Valley, South St. Paul, Burnsville, and Eagan.
- We serve almost 15,000 students per year at this college, with nearly 5,000 students enrolled in regular credit courses and almost 10,000 students enrolled in customized training hour-based courses.
- Instructors at DCTC have worked extensively in their professions and remain active in the industry. They bring their business and industry experience into their classrooms, shops, labs and studios. And our instructors do more than teach - they advise and mentor students. They make themselves available to students not just for help in coursework, but for help in achieving results, whether that's finding a new job or improving current one.
- Dakota County Technical College is accredited by the The Higher Learning Commission, of the North Central Association.
