Area Career Center
The Area Career Center was created in 1919 and has resided in its current building since 1950. While it was formerly known as Hammond Technical Vocational High School, its current format houses 13 career pathways that are attended by ten high schools throughout The Region. This unique model allows the ACC to truly prepare students for careers in our area, as our student population is a microcosm of regional workforce demographics.

It is the policy of the Area Career Center (ACC) not to discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, or disability in its career and technical education programs, services, and activities, including employment policies and practices. The ACC will take steps to assure that the lack of English language skills will not be a barrier to admission and participation in the ACC's career and technical education programs.
