Cruisers College
Learn DIY techniques from the marine tech pros at SVC Cruiser’s College.Founded in 2016, Cruisers College was created to provide high-quality marine education specifically for boat owners. Courses are taught in Skagit Valley College's marine technology center, offering opportunities for demonstrations and hands-on learning.
While the Skagit Valley College technical programs deliver excellent training for new marine technicians, their 12-week course format can be challenging for many boat owners to commit to. Cruisers College bridges this gap by delivering practical training designed in accessible one-day or weekend formats.
Cruisers College benefits both participants and the local community—bringing visitors to town while making productive use of specialized facilities and equipment that often sit idle on weekends.
