The Workforce and Community Education department partners with the community to contribute to the economic vitality of the region, provides workforce training to support local employers' needs, and provides lifelong learning opportunities within the District. Workforce and Community Education courses are not-for-credit classes offered in addition to the College’s academic programs. The program is a self-supporting entity of College of the Redwoods.

A not-for-credit class can be a vocational or certificate based training, as well as for personal enrichment. Most classes do not require prerequisites. Students do not receive college credits for taking these classes.

You can seek funding through the state, county, etc. (The Job Market, The Department of Rehabilitation, etc.). Call our office at 707-476-4500 to learn about possible funding sources.

Payment plans are available through a partner agency for classes with a cost of $500 or more that are for more than three (3) months long.
