The Prince of Wales Vocational and Technical Education Center is a teaching facility with large and small classrooms, a wet lab, a wood shop, a welding room and a large construction bay. We provide the following services:
Class Creation & Support
Are you interested in having a class developed or brought to Prince of Wales Island? Call or email and we can work together to set it up. Classes where outside instructors are brought in usually require class fees, which cover the instructor’s time and travel, as well as the use of the facility and administrative support. There is an option for POW VocTEC to assist in collecting student fees and event promotion.

Each room at the facility has a different purpose and can be rented for classes, events, cultural gatherings, parties or whatever you would like to host.
