About GBC Continuing Education

Great Basin College Continuing Education offers personal and professional development opportunities through diverse educational courses, activities and programs for community members of all ages. Our catalog of spring/summer/fall courses is designed for busy people who love to learn!

The class schedule does not follow the traditional semester start and end dates. The majority of Continuing Education are not offered for credit and have no final grade assigned. Driver Education courses are graded pass/fail, and certificates are issued to those who successfully complete the 30-hour course.

In addition, many businesses contract with GBC Continuing Education for up-to-date training in Microsoft Office Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Project, and Access. We also offer workforce training in areas such as Paralegal Studies, Wildland Firefighting, CPR Certification, Effective Communication, and Team Building.

Great Basin College also offers many community outreach events including the Father Daughter Ball, the GBC Film Festival, Nevada Humanities/National Cowboy Poetry Gathering Speakers, Great Basin College Art Gallery Exhibits, and more.

Please note: GBC Continuing Education does not typically offer teacher re-certification courses. Contact the Northeastern Nevada Regional Professional Development Program office at 775-753-3879 or visit their website at https://www.nnrpdp.com/ for information.
