Wayne County Schools Career Center

Wayne County Career Center (WCCC) is great for high school students interested in free career training and college prep at the same time. Located in Smithville, Ohio, Wayne County Career Center's career and technical academics prepare students to move on to careers in such fields as animal care, engineering, teaching, carpentry and business. However, WCCC students may also continue to take college prep courses in the liberal arts, sciences, history and math, and ultimately obtain their diploma from their home high school. Students may maintain their extracurricular involvement with their home high school as well by remaining involved in their home school's clubs and sports activities. WCCC's programs, which are attended by hundreds of students from 12 area high schools, are free of charge. Students pay occasional lab fees, but no tuition. For those who may need it, WCCC financial aid is available to those who qualify the form of federal, local or institutional grants as well as student loans. Additionally, Wayne County Career Center offers career education programs and certificates for adults. These include certification in health fields, maintenance and computers. Online courses are offered for all students across all fields of study. Additional services offered at Wayne County Career Center include free career counseling and job search workshops.
