Offerings include professional training to earn industry certificates or continuing education credits, enrichment classes to learn a new hobby or expand your knowledge just for fun, and special programs to engage retirees.

For more than 70 years, UC has provided the Cincinnati area with non-credit adult education courses to enrich and inspire everyday lives.
