Going to college for four years – or even two – isn’t for everyone. We understand that. But everyone wants a good paycheck and a job they enjoy. At NIACC, we offer a variety of programs that you can complete in a year if you enroll full-time. That means you can get your education and training in a one-year program, which gets you out into the workforce, faster!
