Seniors/Emeritus College

Honolulu Community College has established the Emeritus College to respond to the special educational needs and requirements of senior citizens and of persons near retirement. The Emeritus College offers a continuing series of non-credit workshops and serves as a center of support and assistance for senior students wishing to enroll in any of the HCC’s programs, either credit or non-credit.

The Emeritus College is also the first SeniorNet site in Hawaii. SeniorNet is a non-profit organization established to create and support a national community of computer-using seniors. SeniorNet offers computer literacy workshops designed specifically for older adults and operates an on-line telecommunications network that allows local site participants to communicate with others throughout the United States and Canada and to gain access to information of interest.
