Los Angeles Trade Tech College seeks to serve the diverse population of the greater Los Angeles community by offering associate degree and certificate programs that place the student at the center of the learning process. Los Angeles Trade Tech College was established shortly after World War I as a place where Los Angeleans could easily attend vocational training programs. Although this original sentiment remains a part of Los Angeles Trade Tech College's tradition, it now offers dozens of programs in business, communications, and sciences, in addition to trades like carpentry, plumbing, and welding.

There are almost 90 occupational programs at Los Angeles Trade Tech College, a number of which are able to be completed in one year. General education credits taken as part of the AA or AS programs can easily transfer to a four-year college or university.

Los Angeles Trade Tech College is currently partnered with University of Southern California through the USC Scholars Club. This organization helps high-achieving, first-generation, low-income, and underrepresented minority students learn more about the benefits of attending USC or any other selective, private four-year institution. This partnership, funded by a five-year grant from USC, proves that great things are in store for students at Los Angeles Trade Tech College.
