What is Continuing Education?

Continuing Education programs (sometimes shortened to “Con Ed” or “CE”) are designed for adults looking to enhance their job skills, update their knowledge, or pursue personal interests. Where a longer degree/diploma program includes more general education classes, Con Ed courses focus specifically on practical training—equipping you for a new career in a matter of months or even weeks!
