The Gjerde Room was amazing! The set up of chairs, the high ceiling, and stage presence is…read morecomfortable. The space does not seem like it is in the same area as the student hub. The stage is set up in a way where everyone can see. And the space can be easily transitioned to meet the needs of all events! We look forward to attending more events in this space!

Columbia Basin is a two year college. It serves all three of the tri-cities and their surrounding…read morecommunities. They offer a variety of two year degrees and offer affordable classes for people transferring on to four year schools. The office personnel are not very good at dealing with the public. They seem to forget that we pay their salaries and without us they would not have a job. They are not very efficient or helpful with your concerns. I would suggest handling as much of your issues online that you can. They don't deserve any stars for customer service. They campus is kept clean. There are projects going on constantly to improve amenities. The ambiance is generally quite easygoing. Students range from post high school to seniors but average age seems to be early to mid twenties. The biggest problem seems to be parking at prime class times between 8am and noon. Taking that into account they deserve a half star. The faculty is generally very knowledgable in their respective subjects. The technical trade departments are in touch with current trends in the work force and seem to have many connections in the community. The professors in general care about students that want to work hard and are willing to take extra time to help with learning. The tutor center usually has very competent people staffing it. If you apply yourself they go the extra mile for you. All in all it's a solid three stars

I have scheduled two courses with Columbia safety. First was my CNA. Shortly into the course, they…read moretold me I'd have to finish the entire course (online classes, in person classes, skills, clinicals, tests) by the end of the month due to WA law! I wasn't able to finish in time, and they never gave me a full refund. I had to fight for months to get a partial refund. Next, I scheduled my AHA BLS CPR here (because I had to) and the billing wasn't working as well as the registration site. It is such a headache to work though Columbia safety. I'd rather drive to Spokane or Yakima.
