Welcome to Palm Beach Community College ? Florida?s first public community college.PBCC has proudly served our students and the residents of Palm Beach for more than 75 years. Since 1933, PBCC has experienced remarkable growth, rising from a small junior college with 41 students to a comprehensive community college serving more than 46,000 students annually at four locations strategically located throughout the county. Courses offered via the Internet are providing thousands of students locally and from around the world access to our programs at the College

From the beginning, student success has been our top priority. Recognizing that each student is unique with diverse needs and goals, we strive to maintain small class sizes and offer programs to develop the whole student, including ethics, leadership and community service opportunities. Our 1:23 teacher-to-student ratio allows for student engagement in a nurturing learning environment. Our faculty members represent some of the best educators in their programs of study, and they are dedicated to challenging our students and helping them achieve their dreams.

Revenues from the state allow PBCC to keep its tuition low, providing affordable access to quality education and training for all individuals. While providing students with the first two years of the baccalaureate degree is our core mission, we also offer degrees and certificates for those preparing to go directly to work, or who simply want to update their skills, renew their professional license or learn for the fun of it.
