Career Services

Policy Statement

Currently attending students and graduates have access to career services as described below. Students and graduates may reach out to their assigned Career Services Advisor at any time with questions, concerns, or to request additional information about the career services provided by NCC.

Career Advising

Currently attending students have access to career advising services. The career advising process begins approximately halfway through a student’s program of study and focuses on professional development activities. The career advising process includes resume writing activities, interview practice activities, discussions about career prospects, externship preparation activities (if applicable), and licensure preparation activities (if applicable). Students must actively participate in the career advising process to remain eligible for continued assistance.

Career Placement Assistance

Eligible graduates who have completed all programmatic and institutional graduation requirements have access to career placement assistance. Currently attending students do not have access to career placement assistance. Please note, while every attempt will be made to help graduates find employment upon completion of their program, career placement assistance offered by NCC is not a guarantee of employment.

The career placement assistance process begins at the conclusion of each graduate’s program of study. Career Services Advisors initiate contact with graduates seeking employment on a weekly basis via phone call or email to offer career placement assistance services. If a graduate does not respond to contact attempts by their assigned Career Services Advisor for over eight weeks, they will be considered out of contact. NCC will discontinue weekly contact attempts at that time, and the graduate will not be eligible for continued assistance until they re-establish contact with their assigned Career Services Advisor.

Graduates are expected to actively and independently apply for jobs throughout the career placement assistance process. For graduates who actively engage with their assigned Career Services Advisor, the support services provided include interview practice and guidance, guidance about online employment search techniques, resume support, and assistance with employment negotiations.

Career Services Advisors may also provide referrals for interview opportunities based on availability and employer candidate profiles, but these referrals are not guaranteed. Please note, NCC does not guarantee referrals for interview opportunities outside of the Las Vegas Greater Metropolitan Area. If you are planning to relocate after graduation, please contact your assigned Career Services Advisor to discuss what options are available to you.

Upon receiving notification that a graduate has secured employment in the field, NCC is required to verify employment information for accreditation reporting purposes at least fifteen (15) calendar days after the graduate’s employment start date. At that time, NCC will also attempt to collect compensation data from the graduate and/or the employer for reporting purposes. NCC uses individual wage and employment data collected from graduates and employers to inform its projections of graduate earnings and employment success. However, NCC is not able to guarantee graduates a particular wage since earnings are based on factors outside of NCC's control such as experience, company profile, and industry trends.

I’m beyond happy with all my accomplishments thanks to this school and staff. They are so motivating and positive. The hands-on training made it so easy for learning!!
