HISTORY
Although Yerköy Vocational School was officially established on February 29, 2024, its origins date back much further. It was originally founded on September 23, 2010, as Yerköy Vocational School of Justice. It began providing education under the Department of Law across six programs: Justice, Justice (Evening Education), Social Security, Social Security (Evening Education), Penal Execution and Security Services, and Penal Execution and Security Services (Evening Education).
The evening education activities for the Penal Execution and Security Services Program were discontinued in 2020, followed by the Justice and Social Security Programs in 2022. At the end of 2023, it was decided to close Vocational Schools of Justice nationwide, and accordingly, Yerköy Vocational School of Justice was closed on November 23, 2023.
Re-established as Yerköy Vocational School on February 29, 2024, our institution resumed educational activities with 3 departments and 3 programs. Following the closure of 1 department at the end of 2025, our Vocational School continues its educational activities with 2 departments and 3 programs.
Our Vocational School offers a two-year associate degree education in formal (daytime) education mode. Our facility includes 5 classrooms, 1 computer laboratory, 1 conference hall, 1 library, 1 dining hall, and 1 canteen. Educational, instructional, and research activities are carried out by 11 faculty members on our staff.
The primary objective of our Vocational School is to train qualified workforce needed particularly in various units of the central organization of the Ministry of Justice, courthouses, other judicial authorities, notary and legal offices, penal execution institutions, and social security institutions.
