TECHNICAL CAREER PARTNERS

JOCO WORKS has several partners to help prepare individuals for successful technical careers and fill the needs of local employers looking for highly-skilled workers. Below you will find more information about our technical career partners.
 Johnston Community College

Johnston Community College (JCC) offers 30+ career and technical education programs that allow students to pursue associate degrees, certificates, and diplomas and prepare them to enter the workforce. Many of the credentials can be earned in a year or less and students can get started as early as high school.
 
Whether you’re seeking to go directly into the workforce through a career and technical program, looking to transfer to a four-year college or university, or wanting to start taking college classes while in high school, JCC can set you on the right path to success.
