The Roanoke Higher Education Center is a collaborative project among multiple member institutions and agencies. The people of the Roanoke Valley, from high school age through retirement age, will be able to find programs that will give them a career start, a career boost, or a change in career direction. Whether through short-term training or the more lengthy pursuit of an advanced degree, individuals will have an opportunity to broaden their knowledge, skills, and interests in ways that will enrich their lives and the overall quality of life in the region.

The Roanoke Higher Education Center is designed to incorporate state-of-the-art instructional, communications, and computer technology that will support distance learning as well as on-site instruction. Other features important to all students that will be particularly attractive to working adults include a technologically advanced library, a café, a lounge and study areas.
