- Jefferson County Technical Institute was chartered for operation on September 16, 1966, as a public two-year institute by the Ohio Board of Regents, and a Board of Trustees was appointed in compliance with the Ohio Revised Code. Area acceptance and support for the technical institute was confirmed in fall 1966, when Jefferson County voters approved a one mill, 10-year levy to assist in the support of the facility. The levy has been renewed three times, the latest in 1996.
- The Ohio Board of Regents approved a name change for the institute to Jefferson Technical College in 1977. In 1995, the college expanded its mission to provide associate degrees for transfer to four-year institutions. On July 1, 1995, Jefferson Community College began officially serving the public with its broader mission.
- Jefferson Community College with 160,000 square feet houses 22 classrooms and 36 laboratories for business; engineering and information technologies; health, biological and social sciences; humanities, and general studies course work. The computer wing houses three computer labs, which are adjacent to the lecture halls. The Learning Skills Lab, which is located on the upper level of the library, is dedicated to assisting students with their basic skills and studies.
- Jefferson Community College grants the Associate of Arts (AA) and Associate of Science (AS) degrees. The Associate of Arts (AA) parallels the first two years of a traditional university liberal arts degree. It provides the student seeking transfer to a four-year college or university with the lower-division courses generally required by the four-year institution.
- Jefferson Community College is accredited by the Commission of Higher Learning of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.
