Careerline Tech Center, a service of the Ottawa Area Intermediate School District, opened in the fall of 1977 with 441 students enrolled in eleven programs. Today, more than 1,400 students are enrolled in 28 career and technical education programs. At the Tech Center, we're helping students prepare for the future. Recognizing that all students learn differently, we offer a variety of options. If college is the goal, direct credit options and articulation agreements with area colleges allow students to earn college credits while taking a Tech Center class. State and national certifications can be earned in classes like Engineering, Mechatronics/Robotics, Healthcare, and Web & Game Development.
