PERSONAL ENRICHMENT
Learning doesn't stop when you graduate!
- Personal enrichment classes help you keep learning about the things that interest you. Learn a new language... plan a vacation… learn how to ride a motorcycle... play golf... or surf the Internet on your personal computer.
- Lifelong Learning helps you achieve balance between your vocational and avocational interests.
- Employers may want to offer a fitness, stress-management, or foreign language class at the worksite.
Lifetime Learning Tax Credit

This credit applies to tuition and fees for undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education course work taken part-time to improve or upgrade job skills.
