ATTENTION! Close Alert Box
Our thoughts continue to be with the many people affected by the devastating tornado and storms in Newcastle, Moore and the south Oklahoma City metro.  Although we are fortunate that the OCCC campus was not damaged, some OCCC students, faculty and staff have been directly impacted by this terrible tragedy and others have family and friends that have been victims of the tornado.
 
Due to the far-reaching impact of the damage, Oklahoma City Community College will be closed on Tuesday, May 21, 2013. All classes and activities for Tuesday, May 21, 2013 are cancelled.  This includes the main campus, the Family and Community Education Center and the Capitol Hill Center.  We will keep you advised when classes and activities will resume.
 
This is a reminder that during inclement weather, campus closings, cancellations and delayed openings will be announced through local radio and television stations and posted on the college’s website, Facebook and Twitter pages. They will also be announced through the college’s Campus Alert Notification (CAN) System
 

Community Outreach and Education

Program Cover

The office of Community Outreach and Education at Oklahoma City Community College provides short-term, non-credit courses designed to improve basic skills for adults, senior citizens and children. Our College for Kids is a dynamic year-round educational program for children. Subject groups include music, drama, science, math, language, arts and crafts, reading, writing and ACT® test preparation workshops that will review terminology, concepts and test-taking tips.

The Adult Learning Center provides free General Educational Development (GED) and English as a Second Language (ESL) classes to community members throughout the Oklahoma City Metro Area. Classes meet twice a week for six hours. Morning, afternoon and evening classes are available. Students must be at least 16 years old and attend a new student orientation prior to enrollment.

Some of our classes are designed to improve basic skills, while others are just for fun. No pressure and no exams. Our adult and senior citizen personal enrichment classes allow students to learn with other interested adults about dance, language, computers and music. These non-credit classes are offered free or at a low cost in various locations throughout the year. All adults are welcome ages 18 and up.

Community Outreach and Education is dedicated to the belief that lifelong learning helps adults acquire the knowledge, skills, and values needed to lead productive and satisfying lives. We are always looking for suggestions on what classes to offer. If you have a suggestion or would like to share your skills by teaching a non-credit course, please contact the Community Outreach and Education Office at 682-7859, 682-7873.
