About the Office of Continuing Education

Welcome to the Continuing Education at Nicholls State University.

Nicholls is a campus for the community, and the Office of Continuing Education is committed to showcasing our commitment to life-long learning.

It is our goal to provide personal enrichment through education. Youth summer camps and adult non-credit courses are two areas that provide unique opportunities to learn new skills, pick up new hobbies or meet new people with similar interests.

For those focused on the future, we offer career training through our Workforce Development program. Live and online course options can help you bring valuable skills back to your current job or even prepare you for a new career.

Our program offerings are always changing and growing. Please visit our site often to stay informed about all the great resources through Continuing Education at Nicholls State University.

Become a Continuing Education instructor and share your talents and skills through your very own class. Begin by completing our Course Proposal Form.  Return completed form to the Office of Continuing Education  (campus map)  or mail to P.O. Box 2119, Thibodaux, LA 70310.

The Office of Continuing Education has moved to 125 Elkins Hall.
