Contact the Admissions Office for additional information. All students who expect to earn credit in a nontraditional way not covered in the college catalog must have their requests for credit approved by the Director of Student Services before enrolling in the course or program. A variety of noncredit courses open to the public are offered throughout the year by the Office of Community Services. Courses are held on campus and at many convenient locations throughout Lake and Sumter Counties. Courses are offered not only at night but also during the weekdays and even on Saturdays.
Courses range from art, foreign language, flower arranging, and dance to computers.
The typical course runs six to eight weeks and is offered at a relatively low cost. Courses which provide an opportunity for the upgrading of vocational skills through license renewal programs are offered at the college. Various programs, offering the necessary continuing education units required to maintain licenses, are provided by the college. Preregistration is required for all noncredit courses due to limited space. Full refunds are issued if the Office of Community Education is notified of the refund request prior to the second class session.
