Community Education is a program that is fee-based, not-for-credit, and meant for everyone in our community, regardless of age. The mission is to provide relevant educational experiences that help people achieve their goals. These goals may be to learn or engage in a new activity, personal growth and enrichment, professional development, or learning through trips and travel opportunities.
The Business Training Center (BTC) is the branch of Community Education that is dedicated to professional development. We do this through enrollment-based courses, found in our catalog, or by contracting with local business and organizations to train a cohort of employees. By partnering with local business and industry, the Business Training Center is able to enhance our community’s economic growth through cost-effective, results-oriented training services that are relevant and performance based. It also offers to qualified businesses special funding opportunities for training through the Employment and Training Panel (ETP).
Community Education has a variety of programming types and modalities. The majority of our courses can be found in our catalog and course registration site, but we also partner with outside vendors for equally engaging experiences.
