Non-Academic Courses

       Community Education & Workforce Development courses are open to anyone without
       formal admission to Kilgore College. Generally, there are no entrance requirements. Some
       programs may require proof of a bacterial meningitis vaccination. Course descriptions include
       prerequisites when appropriate.

Books & Materials:
       Instructors will discuss materials and textbooks during the first class session. Books are available
       through the college bookstore located in the Devall Student Center or at KC-Longview for
       Longview classes only. Some courses listed in the class schedule do not require textbooks or
       supplies. Supplies and texts are not included in the course fees unless stated in the course
       description. Books or supplies should not be purchased until you know exactly what the
       instructor will require.

Continuing Education Units (CEUs):
       In compliance with guidelines from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, Kilgore
       College awards Continuing Education Units (CEUs) to students successfully completing various

       enhance employment skills and offer opportunities for personal enrichment. Short-term, non-
