The educational institution "Slonim State College" has a glorious history.
After the annexation of Western Belarus to the BSSR, educational institutions began to open in the Grodno region. Thus, in October 1940, the Slonim School of Factory and Plant Training was created, and the first graduation of plumbers was made on May 31, 1941. With the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, many graduates volunteered for the front. After the liberation, the country's economy needed to be restored, and construction workers were needed. In 1944, Factory and Plant Training School No. 33 resumed its activities. Personnel were trained in the most necessary construction specialties: carpenter, plasterer, roofer, joiner, mechanic, painter.
In 1946, the Slonim School of Factory and Plant Training was renamed Vocational School No. 19. It trained carpenters and mechanics to repair cars. About 150 new students came to study every year. In the 1950s, one of the main tasks in the USSR was the restoration and development of agriculture. The idea of developing virgin lands appeared. The country needed specialists in this field.
In 1954, the educational institution was reorganized into vocational school No. 4. From that time on, it switched to training machine operators for the village. The main specialty of the educational institution is a tractor driver. In 1962, vocational school No. 4 was renamed into vocational school No. 5. Since 1964, along with the old professions, training of mechanization and irrigation operators began.
In 1969, the school was relocated to a new location on Brestskaya Street. An educational building, a dormitory, and workshops were commissioned. A 12-apartment residential building for employees was built. Since 1971, students have been receiving secondary education along with their specialty. In 1978, a 2-story wing was added to the main educational building, housing 6 more new classrooms. In 1984, a public utility building was commissioned.
In 1985, Vocational School No. 5 was renamed Vocational School No. 189. In 2000, the school was reorganized into the educational institution "Slonim State Agricultural Professional Lyceum".
In 2003, by decision of the Grodno Regional Executive Committee No. 482 of August 25, 2003, the educational institution “Slonim State Agricultural Professional Lyceum” was renamed into the educational institution “Slonim State Professional and Technical College of Agricultural Production”.
In 2014, the educational institution "Slonim State Vocational and Technical College of Agricultural Production" was reorganized by merging the educational institution "Kozlovshchina State Agricultural Professional Lyceum" with the creation of the "Kozlovshchina" branch.
The educational institution "Slonim State Vocational and Technical College of Agricultural Production" was reorganized by merging with the educational institution "Slonim State Polytechnic Professional Lyceum" from April 1, 2019.

In addition, there is a free niche for training auto mechanics in the Grodno and Brest regions, who will be in demand at service stations. For this purpose, we have a station for technical maintenance and repair of passenger cars.
We have an excellent base! This is an educational building with classrooms and laboratories for studying subjects of general educational and professional components. These are workshops and a machine yard. Tractors of various models, cars, excavators, combines and other agricultural machinery. For practical driving lessons there is an autotractor track and a training farm.
