Career Enrichment Center

The Career Enrichment Center (CEC), is an Albuquerque Public Schools Magnet High School. The school was established in 1975 and its full name is the Charles R. Spain Career Enrichment Center, named in honor of a former Superintendent of Albuquerque Public Schools. The school allows students to take career focused courses in areas such as medicine, computers, engineering, health, languages, and business. These courses are open to students enrolled in high schools throughout Albuquerque. There is also a sister in the same building called the Early College Academy (ECA). ECA focuses on college preparation by allowing students to take dual enrollment courses at Central New Mexico Community College (CNM) or University of New Mexico (UNM) and work towards an associate or bachelor's degree.
