Career Colleges, also called Vocational-Trade programs, provide training a specific, technical career, and most programs last about two years. These are a good option if you have a career you know you want to go into but you don’t need a degree from a four-year college or university.

Going to a career college will prepare you for a whole lot of different career options, including:

  • Computer technology,

  • Radio or television broadcasting,

  • Nursing,

  • Culinary arts,

  • Firefighting,

  • Dental hygiene, and more!
