EICC Business Careers Night


Event Details


Iowa Workforce Development recently released a chart showing the “Current Vacancies by Occupational Category.” The top two careers were “Sales & Related” and “Office & Administrative Support.”

Not so coincidentally, Eastern Iowa Community Colleges offers the training people need to enter both of those career areas. The college will be highlighting those programs at upcoming Business Careers Nights at Clinton, Muscatine and Scott Community Colleges.

All three events will be held from 4 – 6 p.m.:

Wednesday, February 17 – Muscatine Community College Student Services Center, 152 Colorado St., Muscatine

Thursday, February 18 – Scott Community College Kahl Educational Center, Room 608, 326 W. Third St., Davenport.

Thursday February 18 – Clinton Community College, 1000 Lincoln Boulevard, Clinton.

Whether a student is interested in management, accounting/bookkeeping or jobs in the front office, they can get the training they need in the college’s Accounting Management, Administrative and Office Support, and Business Management programs.

All three programs can be completed in just two years and lead to an Associate in Applied Science Degree. In addition, shorter certificate options are also available in such areas as Management Supervision, Marketing, Small Business Management and Entrepreneurship.

Students interested in fitting classes around a busy work or family schedule can take advantage of the college’s evening and online classes. The college currently has a special offer that cuts tuition in half for the first evening class taken by new students.

The college’s online courses are available thanks to a unique partnership of seven Iowa community colleges. That partnership, the Iowa Community College Online Consortium, makes it possible for students to earn their degree online.

Financial aid is available and EICC continues to deliver the most competitive tuition rate in the state of Iowa.
