MORE EARN IT WITH HIGH SCHOOL CAREER ACADEMIES

CAREER ACADEMIES Academies are an exciting opportunity for high school students to get a jump on their career education, before they leave high school.

Students complete anywhere from a semester to a full year of college coursework while they are still in high school. That’s a tremendous benefit: ➤ Students pay no tuition costs for classes completed while still in high school. ➤ It cuts down the time, often in half, students spend completing their training after high school. That also cuts their overall tuition costs and gets them in the job market sooner. ➤ In most programs, students complete the requirements for, and will earn, a college-level certificate. That looks great on a resume for future employers. ➤ This is a great way for students, who aren’t sure what they want to do after high school, to get real exposure to a career field and learn what it’s all about. ➤ Students attend classes with their fellow students, who have the same interests. ➤ In some programs, students continuing classes after high school experience paid on-the-job employment during their second year, often enough to pay their college tuition completely.

Career Academies are available through all three of EICC’s Clinton, Muscatine and Scott Community Colleges. The Academies vary by location.
