LCTI’s campus is adjacent to Lehigh Carbon Community College in the Schnecksville section of North Whitehall Township and boasts a 450,000-square-foot facility outfitted with the latest software, tools and equipment.

Enrollment Options

Academic Center: The Academic Center provides students in grades 9-12 with the option of taking both their academic and career & technical course work at LCTI as full-day students. These rigorous academic courses will satisfy graduation requirements as well as complement the career & technical major of each student. Students will still graduate from their resident school districts and are encouraged to participate in extracurricular activities back at their sending school. Students will be able to register for the full-day program during their school district’s regular course registration time.

Half-day enrollment: Students in grades 9-12 may choose the half-day enrollment option. The half-day option provides students with career & technical education at LCTI and the required academics at their respective school districts. Students are encouraged to take high-level coursework at the sending district which will provide the academic background necessary to be successful in today's highly technical careers.

Flex time enrollment: Another option that may suit students' individual needs is the flex-day program. The flex program is designed to provide students with technical coursework on a limited schedule. Students may choose to come to LCTI for one or more periods per day depending upon their needs. Students may attend one or both semesters and may attend for multiple years. Many students use this technical educational training as a jump start to a technical degree in a four-year institution. Both the half-day and flex-day options may be chosen during the regular course registration process.
