The primary objective of the Community
Education Department is to plan and promote full use of college
resources to assist individual, business, industry, and community
growth through training and education. All programs are intended
to enrich, strengthen, and support those who are not served by
the traditional instructional activities of the College.
Based upon community interest and need, these programs help our
customers upgrade their skills, increase their knowledge, learn
a new hobby, advance their careers, solve problems and stimulate
their minds. Courses are informal, relaxed and noncompetitive.
Topics may include: computers, supervisory skills, team building,
personal finance, art, music, foreign and sign language, travel,
business grammar, herbs, local history and children's courses.
