DMACC Newton campus opened its doors in 1993 with generous support from the Maytag Corporation and the City of Newton.

The campus is housed in a 105,000-square-foot building that includes multiple state-of-the-art computer classrooms, an open computer lab, student lounge, 325-seat auditorium, bookstore, and Robert H. Isensee Library.

In 2009, the Jasper County Career Academy was opened after receiving grants and support from the Whirlpool Corporation, along with government, economic development, education, and business leaders. A former Maytag building was transformed into a 30,000 square-foot learning facility offering vocational training for high school students and adult learners.
