Deschutes County is accepting applications for the 2026 County College program. The deadline to apply is Friday, July 10.
County College is a free, 10-week program that gives community members a behind-the-scenes look at county government. Participants meet with County staff, learn how local services work, and tour facilities like Deschutes 9-1-1, Knott Landfill, the elections office and the road department.
This year, classes will be held on Tuesdays, from 4 to 6:30 p.m., beginning Aug. 25 and continuing through Oct. 27.
Applicants must either live in Deschutes County or own a business or work full-time in the county. Applicants are required to pass a background check before being accepted into the program. Space is limited, and not everyone is admitted.
To apply, visit deschutescounty.gov/countycollege. For more information, call Kim Katchur at 541-322-7441 or email kimberly.katchur@deschutes.org.
