Our courses are designed to support regional business and industry workforce training goals that enhance the skill sets of incumbent and new workers. We offer a diverse selection of computer training and general business courses that will enhance worker performance, but we also offer a wide array of courses that prepare students/workers for a professional certification exam or lead them directly to a certificate of completion. If your company has specific training needs, we also offer training courses that can be customized to your needs.

Many of our workforce training courses are designed to be delivered on-line in a self-paced format to expand your workers' knowledge of a subject or introduce them to new and exciting areas of learning as they continue to work.
