Your toolbox for living independently

We all need a variety of skills to simply get by: how to live within a budget, plan a healthy menu, fill out applications, interview for jobs, and check our credit ratings - just to name a few. College Excel's comprehensive Life Skills curriculum provides students with the tools to succeed, including accredited courses on Personal Finance, Health, and Job Skills.

Our coaches follow up to ensure that students apply the information and deal with the details that keep life running smoothly. Our Student Housing supervisor, for example, works with students to create a balanced and healthy home life by helping them prepare nutritious menus and complete necessary chores.

College Excel also hosts numerous guest speakers on such issues as finding employment in Bend, selecting a therapist or support group, or being sexually responsible.
