The Elkhart Area Career Center’s vision of "empowering today’s students to master their tomorrows" begins with treating students with respect, to which they respond in kind. Parents have reported a striking, positive change in attitude and motivation after their teenager begins classes at the EACC. With career and technical education, they report that their teen now sees not only how skill training, but also academics, can affect their future careers. Formerly uninterested students have added career planning and post-secondary education/training to their goals. A supportive staff provides outstanding career and technical training and challenges students to make successful career choices.

Is career and technical education right for my child?
