Are you a risk-taker? While jumping into a new career may seem daunting, taking the initial plunge is necessary for making great accomplishments. Grace Brown is one recent Rockford Career College graduate who found that taking the risk was worthwhile.
 
Ms. Brown's desire to provide outstanding care for animals led her to RCC. While enrolled in the veterinary technician program, she faced several challenges, one of which was the passing of her grandmother. “She was my best friend,” says Ms. Brown.

Working multiple jobs. Caring for children. Sometimes, every day matters prompt us to place our dreams on hold. When it comes to continuing education and starting a better career, many feel that financial and time constraints make those goals impossible to pursue. However, at Rockford Career College, it may be easier than you expect.
