It is not far away, but it’s a long way from home. Tucked quietly into the forest of rural, northeast Florida is an educational center so removed from tradition, you might forget that you’re actually learning. FCCJ’s Nassau Outdoor Education Center is located just 20 miles north of downtown Jacksonville but light-years away from the stress of the urban environment. Under a full canopy of native flora, the Center offers seven educational programs: the low ropes course, the climbing wall, team building, corporate and organizational training, wilderness training/adventures, environmental education and college credit outdoor adventure courses. All of our programs are custom designed for the purpose of building solid cohesive teams.

When you arrive, you'll immediately realize that even though you haven’t driven far, you’re a long way from the noise, pressures, pace and stress of the city. We recommend that you fill your lungs with fresh air, fill your ears with the sounds of nature and open your mind to a new learning environment for group development and personal growth.
