​  The Community Education office is committed to providing “Life-long Learning” opportunities to individuals in our community.  We offer a wide-range of classes, from the just-for-fun classes to improving a skill or learning a new hobby.  Whether you are looking for an educational, enrichment or adventure class, we may have just what you’re looking for.
 
Community Education classes are short-term, not-for-credit, fee-based courses, workshops and training programs.  The program is self-supporting from class fees, receiving no funds from COS or the State of California, and is separate from the academic offerings of the College.
 
Community Education is a unit of the Business, Industry and Community Services Department, offering classes on the Visalia campus, the BICS Training Center and other off-campus sites in the community.
