Summer Programs & Residential Conferencing 

Union Commonwealth University hosts conferences and summer programs for organizations, businesses and youth groups from all over the United States. Beyond campus lies something different: adventurous beauty. Located in southeastern Kentucky in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountain range along the famous Wilderness Road and 30 miles from Cumberland Gap National Park. It’s a huge natural playground where you can rappel down a cliff, navigate through rapids, explore caves, hike or ride horseback through the woods, bike through the mountains or hang out and just enjoy the scenery. Want to experience a bit of the city? Travel north to land in Lexington, KY., and south to arrive in Knoxville, TN. Either way, it's a quick hour and a half trip that offers fine and casual dining, airports, shopping, museums, shows, nightlife and so much more. Get outside yourself by hosting your summer conference or retreat at Union Commonwealth University!
