Community Education is focused on providing you with a variety of learning opportunities to build skills like using Excel and Word, learning a language, repairing your house, or writing a resume; or to provide you with personal enrichment like learning to dance, trying watercolor painting, or improving your mental and physical health. With our College for Kids program offering summer classes for 3-11 year olds, our College for Teens offering classes for teens, our hundreds of non-credit classes and workshops for adults, and our Lifelong Learning classes for seniors, your Community Education department provides the non-credit classes and workshops our community says it wants!
