Continuing Education & Training

One of the College’s core themes is Community Development and Continuing Education & Training is focused on providing community enrichment and professional development to everyone in our region. We offer a wide range of classes in a variety of formats from one-day seminars to full semester classes. As part of the community, we find ways to partner with local organizations and businesses to offer courses to fit people’s needs. All of the classes are taught by professionals and community members passionate about their subjects.

Continuing Education & Training offers professional development and community enrichment classes. The professional development courses are to help professionals fine tune their skills, learn new techniques, and provide professional certification. Our community enrichment courses are affordable, fast, fun, and stress free. 

Continuing Education & Training offers mostly non-credit classes. However, several of these qualify for OPI renewal units for teachers in our area and some meet state licensure.
