About SCC
Healthcare-focused career training in Gurnee, Illinois — preparing practical nurses, medical assistants, and allied health professionals since 2007.
Our history
State Career College (SCC) was established in 2007 to help students in the Gurnee, Illinois area move into in-demand healthcare careers through focused, hands-on training. We have been graduating healthcare professionals from our Gurnee campus for nearly two decades.
Our mission

We believe in doing the right thing all the time, even when no one is looking. Students see this modeled in our admissions, classroom, and clinical processes from day one.
Dedication
Our students and staff believe that when things get tough, it's time to double down. We support students through difficult course material, externship placements, and credential exam preparation.
