New Opportunities for the Wise
 

NIACC and First Citizens National Bank jointly offer NIACC NOW classes specifically for North Iowans age 55 and better!

Imagine a school without grades or tests, a place where the only prerequisites are an active mind and a desire to learn in a congenial atmosphere. Whether you have a PhD or no previous college experience, you'll feel at home because everyone present shares the common bond of intellectual curiosity and the experience of your generation. You'll share opinions, knowledge and expertise with a dynamic group of teachers and classmates. Course topics are determined according to the needs and interests of participants. From earth-friendly gardening to surfin' the net, you'll experience what interests you most. 

55 Alive/Mature Driving
The 55 Alive/Mature Driving course is produced by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) and is designed to improve driving habits. It involves eight hours of classroom instruction (two half-day sessions) to refine existing driving skills and develop safe, defensive driving techniques. The course covers the normal changes in vision, hearing and reaction time associated with aging and provides practical techniques to compensate for these changes. After completion of the course, a certificate is issued. Many insurance companies give a deduction to those who have completed the course.

Travel & Adventure Series
Don’t miss your opportunity to discover wonders from all over the world. The Travel & Adventure Series is brought to you by NIACC and the Mason City Noon Kiwanis. Narrated live by the filmmaker, each presentation is approximately 90-minutes in length. The series is held at the North Iowa Community Auditorium beginning at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $5 for adults and $3 for students and may be purchased at the door; season tickets are also available in the fall. Profits benefit youth projects in the community.
