Higher Education
On the higher education front, Western Nebraska Community College built a new Sidney Center in a cooperative development effort with the city in 1995. WNCC is known for providing students with a great education at an affordable price. Today, WNCC offers more than 88 degree and certificate programs through a semester system. Committed to vocational and academic excellence, WNCC prepares students for success in the real world.
WNCC continues to strengthen its business relationship with area industries, such as the Cabela’s University Training Program, and has an established relationship with Chadron State College and the University of Nebraska regarding four-year degrees. WNCC and the community partnered together to build the new WNCC Aviation Maintenance School at the Sidney Municipal Airport. A community childcare development center opened in 2002 on campus and a nearby housing complex secured in 2006 serves as housing for the college students.
Quality childcare is the foundation to the educational future, and a concern for all parents. Over 25 registered day care providers can be found in Sidney, ranging from in-home providers to licensed facilities that can handle over 150 children. A major childcare expansion is scheduled by the Community Center in 2008. There are also a number of pre-schools in the area that provide quality education and activities to our area children.
