About Southeast Technical College

Southeast Technical College (STC), sometimes called Southeast Tech, is a two-year technical community college in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, United States. Southeast Area Vocational Technical School was founded in 1968 and first operated out of various buildings across Sioux Falls. In 1989, it moved onto its current campus and changed its name to Southeast Vocational Technical Institute. It shortened its name to Southeast Technical Institute in 1993, before adopting its current name following a statewide restructure of the technical college system in 2020. It offers associate degrees and certificates in programs related to business, technology, healthcare, trades, and other sectors. The institution is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC).
