White Mountains Community College (WMCC) is a part of the Community College System of New Hampshire and is based in Berlin with academic centers in Littleton and North Conway. It offers many programs, with nursing, welding, automotive, and culinary degrees being some of the more prominent programs.

It is an accredited college with many of the credits transferable to other colleges in the CCSNH system and other institutions of higher education both in and out-of-state. Acceptance is granted to anyone that meets the admissions requirements of the college, adding to class diversity. The majority of the classes are held on the main campus in Berlin and the academic center in Littleton, with smaller offerings in North Conway. WMCC continues to grow its online learning opportunities and currently offers several 100% online programs.

History

The college opened in the fall of 1966 as the northernmost campus of the "New Hampshire Vocational Institute", also referred to as the "Berlin Vocational Institute". It has had other names over its history including "Berlin Vocational Technical College" (by 1970, and into the 1990s), "New Hampshire Community Technical College - Berlin" (1996[1] through mid-2007) and "New Hampshire Community College - Berlin" (only briefly, from mid-2007 to early 2008).[2][3] The school was renamed as "White Mountains Community College" in 2008 as part of a more general renaming of the state's community colleges.[4][5]

The Littleton center opened in 2009, followed by the North Conway location in 2016.[6]
