Below is a list of common questions:

Q. Who leads the workshop?
A. Fee-based workshops are lead by experts in their fields. The workshops are not-for-credit and do not require homework or testing. 

Q. Who can enroll?
A. Fee-based workshops are open to all members of the community. Workshops that have age restrictions will indicate this in the class descriptions or programs.

Q. Should I register early?
A. Early registration is very important! Workshop sizes are limited and early enrollment may assure your place in a high-demand class.  Workshops that do not meet minimum enrollment may be cancelled before the first session. Your timely registration may help ensure this necessary enrollment figure. 

Q. How do I register?
A.  You can register by one of these options:

Q. When/how do I pay the registration fees?
A. Registration fees are due at the time of registration. Registrations will not be processed without the payment of fees. 

Q. Do you offer any kind of financial aid?
A. Unfortunately, there is no financial aid available to assist with class fees. Fee-based workshops are not state-funded and we must use class fees to pay all costs of the classes. 

Q. Will I get a refund if I drop?
A. Fee Refunds. Full refund of fees will be made if (1) the college cancels the activity, (2) the activity is over enrolled and the enrollment request is denied, or (3) the enrollee requests a refund one week prior to the first session of the activity. No partial refunds will be made.

Q. Why do workshops get cancelled?
A. Workshops may be cancelled due to low enrollment. Because our fee-based workshops are self-supporting and not funded by taxpayers’ dollars, we rely on registration fees to pay for all associated costs.
