WNC Yerington has served area residents with high quality college education for more than 20 years. WNC offers students college courses that lead to associate degrees and certificates, as well as career preparation classes.

Many WNC students are adults seeking job skills or an upgrade in their careers. Others are high school students who take advantage of dual-credit college classes offered at Yerington High School each school year. Craft classes are quite popular with the Mason Valley senior citizen population. As Yerington is the county seat of Lyon County, WNC Yerington also provides periodic classes to county employees.
