American Career College locations include: Orange County, Ontario, Lynwood, Los Angeles, and Long Beach. Due to the nature of the medical profession and training required to earn these certifications, no online options are available. That means that unless a student lives close to one of these campus locations, American Career College is most likely not an option for higher education training.
