The college was established in September 1928. It was then known as the Teachers' Training Centre. Before 1928, local teachers traveled abroad for education, often in other Caribbean colleges such as Mico University College in Antigua, Shortwood Teachers College in Jamaica and Rawle College in Barbados. In 1942, the institution was renamed Government Training College for teachers (GTC).
In 1963, in addition to the full-time programme (this was referred to as Pre-Service), a part-time programme (In-Service) was launched. The Pre-Service programme catered to students between the ages of 17 and 24, while the In-Service mode catered to those above the age of 24 together with relevant teaching experience. Pre Service Secondary began in January 1969. It was referred to as the Multilateral Teachers' Training Programme. It was later called the College for Secondary Teachers and renamed the Lillian Dewar College of Education in honour of a woman who had given distinctive service to secondary education in Guyana.
