Walton Career Development Center is a post-secondary institution that accepts eligible high school students for technical dual enrollment when space is available in the program. It is open, operating and growing in programs and enrollment. I believe this site is ranking the school and population based on the last year WCDC offered full a high school curriculum, before focusing on serving the adult students.
Programs and training are rigorous, relevant and geared for successful job placement meeting community needs. The school is fully accredited by SACs and Council on Occupational Education. Many of the programs are articulated with local and state colleges for college credit.
Program offerings include Information Technology, Computer Systems, Cyber Security, Medical and Administrative Specialists, Practical Nursing, Patient Care Technician, Automotive, Construction Technology, Electrical, Cosmetology and more. Financial Aid is available for qualified programs. The campus is located in the center of Walton County and has a unique community feel. Faculty is dedicated to making sure you meet your training and employment goals.
