The Ottumwa Schools’ Career Campus offers students increased learning opportunities in high-demand career fields. Located one block from Ottumwa High School in downtown Ottumwa, the recently remodeled, state-of-the-art facility offers students the opportunity to earn high school and college credits simultaneously. The career campus serves as the hub for Ottumwa Schools Work-Based Learning.

Courses allow students to explore careers and prepare for life beyond high school. The curriculum focuses on work-based learning opportunities connected to local businesses and community partnerships, giving our students real-world experiences. Students also have the opportunity to "earn while they learn" in registered apprenticeships and internships. Career academies at Ottumwa High School and the Career Campus exemplify our commitment to Be The Best!
