In addition to vocational training, Herkimer BOCES extends comprehensive support with special education services, fully integrated preschool and pre-kindergarten programs, and adult education initiatives, including a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) program and adult literacy programs. The agency is also dedicated to serving migrant students over 13 counties and significantly contributes to the community through non-instructional support, such as a central business office and cooperative purchasing. The Mohawk Regional Teacher Center under its umbrella provides professional development for educators. Furthermore, its Valley Pathways in Technology Early College High School (VP-TECH) offers a seamless pathway to an associate's degree in quality assurance, bridging high school, college, and professional environments.
