The college operates on the quarter system and has campuses in Beatrice, Lincoln and Milford. The fall 2013 enrollment was 9,751 students. SCC has more than 50 Programs of Study, many technical in nature, and most can be completed in 18-24 months. The college also serves nearly 35,000 non‑credit students enrolled in Continuing Education classes on the campuses and in communities throughout southeast Nebraska. An outstanding continuing education program provides technical, occupational, and leisure classes to regional residents and businesses. Continuing education offers classrooms and labs for technical training for individuals and workforce development for employers.

SCC’s Entrepreneurship Center, located in Lincoln, serves as a resource center for anyone interested in entrepreneurship. The center staff offers assistance to anyone interested in starting a business or looking for direction on their path to business independence. One floor of the center is dedicated to business incubation. The center also hosts credit and non‑credit classes on entrepreneurship and is home to Lincoln Public School’s Entrepreneurship Focus Program (until summer 2015) and the Information Technology Program. Ninety-four percent of the students who graduated in 2013-2014 found employment or continued their education.
