Clarendon College is committed to the educational and cultural development of citizens throughout its service area. The Continuing Education Program is a major expression of the college's orientation toward our mission and public service. It recognizes that people do not outgrow their need and desire to learn but rather continue throughout life to want and to seek new knowledge, understanding, and skills. The specific goals of the program are to:1. Provide opportunities for people of all ages to enrich their cultural lives and pursue their personal interests;2. Provide workforce education and training to adults, and to assist them in acquiring or upgrading vocational-technical skills leading to employment or job advancement;3. Sponsor in-service training opportunities for area employers and professionals to satisfy organizational needs and educational requirements for licensing or credentialing; and,4. Provide other instruction as required to meet community needs. These programs typically consist of non-credit experiences such as short courses, seminars, workshops, and lectures. They can be custom tailored for the convenience of the student or an employer and may be offered at a variety of locations. Enrollment is open to all interested individuals regardless of education background; however, some certification courses may have additional admission requirements. These include certain specialized courses. Each continuing education course normally requires the payment of a fee which is determined by the length and nature of the learning activity.
