In-Person Lifelong Learning Classes
We offer in-person lifelong learning classes at campuses throughout the JJC district. Whether you enjoy crafting, want to learn about local Joliet history or need to train your puppy, we have a class for you! (Please note, not all topics are taught every semester. Please view the current digital catalog to see what classes are available.)
When you take one of our culinary classes, you aren't just learning from the best instructors around, you get HANDS-ON instruction. Plus, you get to enjoy the fruits of your labor!
Are you a history buff or just enjoy learning about the days of yore? Then you're in the right place! Our instructors will keep you on the edge of your seat as you learn about how the events of the past connect to our world today.
Our expert instructors will help you better understand how to prepare financially for retirement, choose the best insurance for your situation and how to budget.
Working as a team, owners and pets will learn to understand each other. Classes are taught in a warm and friendly environment at JJC's Weitendorf campus that encourages owners to have fun with their dogs, all while preparing them for certification.
Please Note: These classes are not appropriate for dogs with aggressive behavior problems. Dogs deemed overly aggressive toward other dogs or humans will be dismissed from the course without refund.
Pet training classes will return for the fall semester.
Looking for an online option? We know that not everyone has the flexibility to join us on campus. Fortunately, we have online options available in a variety of subjects.
We have partnered with ed2go to provide the majority of our online lifelong learning classes. The classes are offered as instructor-led or self-paced. Choose the option that best fits your learning style and availability.
