Why attend an Iowa Central Regional Center?


  • It provides an opportunity for a group of students from different school districts to enroll in a specific set of courses associated with a designated career area.
  • Provides clear and precise career pathways through a specific sequence of courses.
  • Allows school districts to pool resources and instruction.
  • Provides more educational opportunities to students.
  • Allows students to study all the basic courses AND get a skill they will keep for a lifetime... all while getting a head start on a career path.
  • National Credentialing where available and applicable, such as the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC) and OSHA 10.
  • If accepted, students may participate in two different career pathways, over the course of two years. Students that are eligible to apply are Juniors, Seniors and all high school TAG students.
  • Apprenticeship programs are available to select students and career pathways.

I chose Iowa Central because of the low cost of tuition and it was close to home.
