About CCA

The Career College Association (CCA) is a voluntary-membership organization of private, postsecondary schools, institutes, colleges and universities that provide career-specific educational programs. CCA's more than 1,400 members educate and support nearly 2 million students each year for employment in over 200 occupational fields. These schools and colleges graduate approximately one-half of the technically trained workers who enter the U.S. workforce each year and also provide retraining for displaced workers and skills-upgrading for a wide variety of public and private employers.

CCA protects and furthers the interests of its more than 1,400 members by:

• Mobilizing key constituents and legislators to ensure supportive legislation and favorable regulation in Congress and at the U.S. Departments of Education and Labor;
• Providing timely information concerning critical education issues involving Congress, the administration, federal agencies and the higher education community;
• Linking schools and students with corporate America through its allied member partnerships with commercial or professional organizations engaged in the business of providing products or services to CCA members;
• Providing special discounts on products and services through the Allied Plus program;
• Presenting workshops, seminars and publications on issues of importance to career institutions.
