Community Education

Community Education offers non-credit, self-supporting, classes and events that enrich the cultural, social, and recreational life of the community. These may include special interest courses, field trips and workshops.

The department also sponsors College for Kids, an educational enrichment program to challenge youth.

Since Community Education is self-supporting, credit classes that typically do not receive enough enrollment to qualify for state support may successfully be delivered through this department. New programs may originate here until they qualify to be part of the state-supported curriculum. Programs such as Motorcycle Safety will grant a completion card upon successful completion of the course.

Cancellations and Refunds

For single day or short-term courses, students must drop their class five days before the class meets in order to qualify for a refund. Once the class has started, no refund of any amount will be given. For semester long courses, 100 percent is refunded if the withdrawl is completed five days before class starts. Drops must be made on the college website before a refund can be issued.

Motorcycle Safety (MRC) and Driver Education courses are non-refundable.

Class Locations

Community Education classes are held on all three campus and at numerous satellite locations within our seven county service area. See the WNC Locations Page for campus maps and explanations of location codes used in WNC course schedules.
