History

Seacoast Career School was founded in 1995 by Career Directions, Inc. as an organization that specialized in computer and business skills training. Premier Education Group, L.P. acquired the school in August 2001 and the name was changed from Seacoast Works Business School to Seacoast Career Schools.  Since 2001, the school’s program offerings have expanded to include healthcare training in Maine and New Hampshire.  

At Seacoast Career Schools, we attribute our extraordinary success to our ability to identify the gap between formal education and the realities of the working world. We are committed to the personal success of every student who enrolls at one of our campuses. We offer a friendly atmosphere, the use of current equipment and software, and consistency – all complemented by a proven record of success. 

The learning environment at Seacoast Career Schools is results-oriented, allowing students to define what they've learned and put their newfound skills to work immediately. At Seacoast, we are committed to raising today's occupational and training standards, striving constantly to make lifelong learning a rewarding and viable option for people of all ages and levels of expertise.

At Seacoast Career Schools we've shifted the focus from teaching to learning, designing our courses in a way that allows our students to learn by doing, and not simply by listening.  Experience has taught us that a hands-on approach is the best way to learn, so our focus is on practical applications infused with lecture, progressing one step at a time until students are capable of completing exercises unaided.

For students searching for technical schools in New Hampshire or Maine who are considering healthcare training, Seacoast Career Schools offers a number of programs in high-growth career fields.
