Our Story

Designed for Your Success

Originally known as the Lehigh Data Processing Institute, our name was changed to Berks Technical Institute in 1990. By July 1996, we moved to a larger facility in Wyomissing so we could reach even more students. Over the years, we looked for new ways to help even more students take charge of their future, and decided, in 2024, to open locations in Allentown, PA and Lewisburg, PA.

What Sets Us Apart

Continued Commitment to Success

Our mission is to inspire and empower individuals through education and skill development by creating positive experiences grounded in integrity, customer service, innovation, and growth.
