Preparing Students for Successful Careers through Technical Education
About the Salt Lake • Tooele Applied Technology College
The Salt Lake • Tooele Applied Technology College provides rewarding, competency-based, affordable, and accessible career preparation for youth and adults, which meets the needs of Utah employers.
The Salt Lake • Tooele Applied Technology College or SLTATC is one of nine campuses that make up the Utah College of Applied Technology (UCAT). Each campus-college serves a specific geographic region within the state. The SLTATC serves Salt Lake and Tooele Counties.
The SLTATC serves the students, adults, and businesses of the Salt Lake and Tooele Counties. Our customer base includes over 54,000 9th – 12th grade high school students (more than 38% of Utah’s eligible high school students) and over 944,000 residents (over 42% of Utah’s total population). Many of Utah’s largest and most vibrant businesses are also located within our service area.
To meet the needs of our customers, SLTATC currently has four primary locations: our main campus and administrative center at 1655 East 3300 South in Salt Lake City; a Training Center including Public Safety, Automotive and Diesel Mechanics at 2255 South 5370 West in West Valley City; our West Valley Campus including classrooms and computer labs located in the DWS building at 2750 South, 5600 West, Suite B in West Valley City; and shared classrooms in the Tooele High School at 301 West Vine St. in Tooele. These locations provide training opportunities in information technologies, medical technologies, transportation technologies, public safety programs, and business skills. Because of equipment requirements, not every program or course is offered at each location.
Responding to unique business needs means that the SLTATC offers customized programs and classes designed to meet the specific needs of businesses and industries. Business leaders also sit on the College’s Board of Directors and on the College Foundation to advise and direct our activities.
The Salt Lake • Tooele Applied Technology College is committed to becoming an integral and dynamic part of our community. We will do this by providing the best possible technical training to meet the changing, on-going needs of students, adults, and businesses.
