Upcoming Classes & Workshops

Winter term registration is open!

Each term, the CCC Community Ed Department offers a variety of non-credit classes and workshops that enrich lives and inspire learning in our community.

All classes are taught by qualified, local community members and visiting instructors who have experience in their field, a love of teaching and want to share their knowledge and expertise. Courses vary in length from single-session workshops to ten-week courses that meet up to five days a week. Offerings vary from term to term and adapt to meet the community’s ever-evolving needs.
