Have you ever taken a class at Peninsula College? If you haven’t, chances are someone close
to you has. Each year, we serve more than 7,000 people through a variety of credit and
noncredit courses in Port Angeles, Forks, Port Townsend, Sequim, Clallam Bay, Quilcene,
and other sites on the Olympic Peninsula.
Individuals who enroll in these courses do so for a
variety of reasons. Some are seeking training that will
help prepare them for their first career. Others are looking
for new career opportunities. Many are taking transfer
courses so they can earn B.A. or B.S. degrees, while
others need help with basic reading, writing, and language
skills. Still others come to Peninsula College to
take courses simply for the love of learning or to participate
in our many cultural events and activities.
But whatever your reason for coming, Peninsula
College provides a warm and welcoming atmosphere
and an environment devoted to helping you reach your
goals and realize your dreams. Our highly trained faculty and staff work together to ensure that
we remain student centered and that the teaching and learning process remains at the
center of all we do.
