Community Education
Introduce your educational expertise to new audiences through Weber State’s community education programs. We can help you organize free community education courses or conferences that connect you with new audiences.
Benefits
For the Community
Residents have a visible, easily accessible connection to Weber State University through community education.
Alumni and former faculty members can maintain connections through community ed.
Underserved populations can begin building a relationship with higher education through community ed courses.
For Your Department
Reach audiences that you may not have interacted with otherwise.
Build connections from those new relationships.
Share information on for-credit courses with community education students or conference attendees.
Even if those students aren’t currently in the market for your courses, their friends and family members might be. It’s about fostering word of mouth!

“Faculty are not often identified as experienced event planners, and working with DOCE can close gaps and answer questions that many of us may not even know to ask. When I want things not only finished, but completed at a high standard, I turn to DOCE.”

Academic Director, Walker Institute of Politics & Public Service
“Community Education knows how to market and get the students in the door so that we can focus on the material.”

Director Interdisciplinary Programs, Professor, History
“The goal of the classes was to bring Weber State students and community members together to learn about and discuss hot topics. That would have been impossible without Community Education. Their network and reach is immense, and they were able to successfully market the classes.”
