Gadsden State Skills Training Division

Gadsden State Skills Training Division Short-term, non-credit training through the Skills Training Center for individuals who need to upgrade existing skills or to learn a new skill.

The Skills Training Division provides short-term non-credit, competency-based training programs coordinated through Gadsden State Community College’s Skills Training Center, located on the East Broad Campus. All training programs within this division are measured by contact hours rather than semester hours. Students may register for classes at any time throughout the year and graduate when appropr

iate skills have been attained. Students who complete training programs within this division will be awarded an institutional certificate of completion documenting the area of training. The Skills Training Center's hands-on approach give graduates the experience they need to be valuable employees. Students receive help upgrading their reading and math skills. In addition, students learn work ethics by treating classroom as a worksite.
