Through a rigorous, holistic and comprehensive program of vocational/technical and academic preparation, as well as a progressive system of individual support and guidance, we strive to maximize the potential of each student for successful transition to full-time employment, to the pursuit of higher education and to a personal commitment of lifelong learning.
Tri-County’s Continuing Education Program consists of classes designed to educate you in a variety of areas that reach from computer technology to personal finance to cooking and everything in-between. You can learn new skills that might help you in the work place or may just lead to a new hobby. Classes come in all shapes and sizes from one night workshops to multi-night programs. Some of the classes are designed around a fun night out to enjoy solo or with friends.
