Grad Finds Satisfying Career Through Alabama's CARCAM Program

Five years ago, Stephanie Luster, 31, says she mapped out her career path. She applied for the nursing program at Central Alabama Community College (CACC) in Alexander City. Her goal: to earn an associate degree and become a registered nurse. But Luster also recalls reading about the automotive training program and decided that if the college did not accept her application for nursing school, the automotive program would be her “back-up plan.” 

Luster won acceptance into the nursing program in 2011. But after a few classes, she decided to make the switch to the automotive program. 

“I ended up getting scholarships,” says Luster, “and that’s pretty much what made me stick with it.”
