Continuing Education and Workforce Development
The division of continuing education and workforce development offers a variety of classes to enhance employment opportunities and advancement and foster personal enrichment. Aside from licensure and certification courses, most classes are grade- and exam-free.
In addition to adult education, parents and guardians can enroll their children ages 6 to 17 in our Kids on Campus program.
Continuing Education and Workforce Development also provides training for business, nonprofit, and government agencies.
