SENIORS AUDIT


It is possible to attend a course at the college during the day if you are over 60 for only $50. It usually involves three hours a week for 14 sessions.

Please check with the Registrar’s office at the College for registration information. Certification is not awarded for audited courses.

Several of our members have taken up this excellent opportunity and the lecturers love having our members in their classes.
