Business Partners – Why CWI?

Our community recognized the need for an educational resource in the Treasure Valley - one that offers affordable education and customized training opportunities for businesses and residents alike. The College of Western Idaho is dedicated to meet this need by partnering with local businesses to determine their workforce training needs, both immediate and long-term.
