It is also regarded as the site of the first printing house of Cambodia after the war and the first technical free education institution dedicated exclusively to young people from poor communities and rural areas.

The school was opened in 1991 when Father Valter Brigolin and Brother Roberto Panetto moved from Bangkok to Phnom Penh after the Royal  Government invited the Salesian community to Cambodia to establish techical schools in the country.

During the academic year 2008 - 2009 it has enrolled 526 students in its mechanic and welding, electricity, electronic, auto mechanics and printing courses. The students here follow a two years's curriculum and the certificates  are isssued according to the standard required by the Ministry of Education therefore they have an official validity.
