The career-focused school system, Altierus Career College, hosted a grand opening celebration of its new Austin facility. An Austin Chamber member since December 2015, the college prepares individuals with a professional career path in 10 months or less.

“It is indeed an exciting time for the Austin campus. The opportunity to serve the community and decrease the employment skills gap by providing quality educational services and training is a challenge we face willingly,” said Tenishia C. Jackson, Campus Director and Academic Dean of Altierus Career College. “The future is now, and Altierus Career College is happy to provide a career path to success!”

Located at 9100 US HWY 290 E in Suite 100, Altierus Career College, formerly known as Everest Institute, has 21 campuses over the United States that offers students small class sizes and one-on-one guidance that focuses on developing their professional skills from the classroom to the workforce. Nationally recognized by the Accrediting Commission of Career School and Colleges (ACCSC), Altierus Career College offers students a variety of in-demand diploma and associate degree programs that enable students to begin their career sooner.
