Participants are most often individuals who are primarily committed to adult responsibilities rather than to a traditional education program. The courses are designed to meet specific learning needs, and their format and duration vary accordingly. Courses may be offered on or off campus to accommodate special needs and requests. PJC also works with area businesses, industries, individuals, and groups to plan continuing education courses, workshops, institutes, and forums through the college’s Workforce Education Division. Although not providing academic credit, selected courses qualify for Continuing Education Units (CEUs). The CEU is a uniform, nationally accepted unit that provides permanent documentation of an individual’s completion of a given course. Ten hours of participation in these courses constitute one CEU, with decimal units for each additional hour. » About Continuing Education & Course Offerings.

There are two ways to help keep your selected class on schedule: Register early. Do it today. Each class has a minimum required enrollment.
