College Offering Free Online Summer Workshops for Community


With social distancing still in play for the upcoming long summer days, Salt Lake Community College has created a menu of free virtual workshops intended to improve lives and keep people connected during these challenging times.

SLCC is offering more than 30 short workshops, most in the form of free one- to three-hour webinars, WebEx, Zoom and online sessions and video conferences. Workshop subjects range from saving energy at home, being mindful in a time of crisis and other self-help areas to learning about HTML coding, how to video conference with family and friends, genealogy, making souffles and job-related topics like starting a business or building your brand through social media.

The workshops can accommodate between 20 and 100 people and require registration in advance. Registration opens May 4, with workshops beginning on May 18 and final sessions offered until July 16.

Community involvement has always been a driving interest of SLCC. The college strives to support its students and build the communities it serves as best it can, and it’s especially important in extraordinary circumstances like these. This free workshop offering is another way that SLCC can do its part to keep the health and stewardship of the broader community in mind. The workshops are also an excellent opportunity for SLCC to share its depth and breadth of diverse knowledge and rich experiences coupled with a commitment to share this expertise and humanity with the larger community.

As Utah continues to move toward a return to normal, SLCC would like to remind everyone to stay safe and follow the guidelines set forth by our local health departments, recommendations from the CDC and to be kind to everyone you meet. Together everyone can get through these tough times; and together everyone can continue to grow through free educational opportunities like these offered from Salt Lake Community College.

Salt Lake Community College (SLCC) proudly announces a partnership with the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Foundation to modernize its Business Building and transform its School of Business. The improvements are made possible through a generous $10 million gift from the Miller Family Foundation and Gail Miller, the largest-ever single cash donation received by the college.  SLCC is renaming its Business Building the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Business Building in honor of the Miller family’s legacy and contributions to the community. The business school will be named the Gail Miller School of Business in recognition of the strong business acumen Gail Miller displays as a community leader and as the owner and immediate past chair of the Larry H.
