Celebrating Our Graduates

Each year, College of Western Idaho honors its newest class of graduates during a commencement ceremony. From the College’s first commencement in 2009 held outside the Nampa Campus Academic Building to recognizing the achievements of thousands of graduates in-person and virtually over the past 15 years, these ceremonies mark a significant milestone in our students’ lives.
