About the DeWitt Career Advancement Center
Placed on six acres of land, the modern 26,000 sq. ft. facility will consist of two wings. One wing will house classrooms, while the other will offer a large, open space for industrial and agricultural teaching use.
Programs offered at the center include agriculture, business, construction technology, CNC machining, health care, and information technology. Through EICC’s Career Academies, local high school juniors and seniors will be able to learn more about these high-demand industries at no cost.
EICC has partnered with Estes Construction and Studio 483 Architects on the build. If all plans go accordingly, the facility will be open for use in fall 2023.
