Washburn Tech's main campus is comprised of seven buildings which offer a mix of classrooms, lab space and shop facilities. This location also features the Ichabod Shop at Tech, Advantage Center, Conference Center and numerous meeting spaces. Parking is readily available and the campus is close to one of Topeka's busiest business districts, the Wanamaker corridor.
Washburn Tech East offers training in manufacturing, healthcare, construction trades and the General Education Diploma (GED) as well as English as a Second Language (ESL) classes. Another opportunity is the Accelerating Opportunity: Kansas program or AO-K. Developed by the Kansas Board of Regents in partnership with the Kansas Department of Commerce, it enables students to work toward their GED while acquiring technical training at the same time. Costs, to the student, are minimal.
Washburn Tech Academy of Cosmetology, located at 109 SW 29th St., is home to our cosmetology program and offers a salon that is open to the public. Students work with clients in order to complete the clinical hours required by the program. Washburn Tech Academy of Cosmetology is offering services only by appointment at this time. We are open from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, and 9 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. on Saturday. To make an appointment, call 785.670.3400.
