A junior college is a type of post-secondary institution that offers vocational and academic training that is designed to prepare students for either skilled trades and technical occupations or support roles in professions such as engineering, accountancy, business administration, nursing, medicine, architecture, and criminology. Junior college can have different meanings depending on the country; in some regions it is referred to as upper secondary education while in others it is called post-secondary institutions. Despite the differences, junior colleges help prepare students for entry into the workforce by providing them with further academic study for their future careers. Often times, those types of colleges offer two-year associate's degrees that are intended for students that want to later transfer to a college for a four-year bachelor's degree to finish their undergraduate education, pending adequate grades. Students typically attend those types of colleges for one to three years, which is also dependent on the country.
