The college offers associate degrees, certificates, and career studies certificates in transfer and career/technical programs; credit and non‑credit workforce services and training for businesses and industries; special interest classes for the community; and summer classes for youth through the Regional Workforce Development Center.

A dual enrolment program for high‑school students, online courses, and developmental studies classes is also available at the college.

Skilled Trades Instructors provide instruction, support, assessment, and mentorship to community college non‑credit learners. Instructors are required to fully participate in the mission and community of the college. The major emphasis is on teaching, working with non‑credit program participants in classrooms, laboratories, individual conferences, and related contexts to help learners develop their interest and abilities to the fullest.

Part‑time Instructors are contracted on a course‑by‑course basis based on their individual availability and will not exceed 1,500 contracted hours per year. Workforce development programs prioritize industry credential attainment and skill enhancement. Teaching experience is helpful but not required. Professional experience and appropriate certification are critical. Teaching positions are primarily in‑person, but occasionally instruction may be hybrid.
