Our degree programs are relevant, taught by faculty who are professionals in their fields, and prepare individuals to enter the workforce. For those people already employed and seeking professional development we offer a variety of classroom-based and online courses as well as our hallmark onsite training.

Business

With Regional Centers in Claremont, Concord, Conway, and Rochester, and with Academic Centers in Manchester and Portsmouth, Granite State College is committed to educating and training the employees within the business community. To increase access to community based education and training opportunities, Granite State College is also co-located with the NH Community College System in Berlin and in Littleton, and with Franklin Pierce University in Lebanon.

These nine locations give the college a state-wide presence and enable us to engage with the communities and organizations within these communities to help serve their educational and training needs, among others.
