Types of Classes

To meet your needs and schedule, WCC offers many types of classes. This page briefly describes each one and provides links to relevant classes.

• Traditional classes meet during the workweek, with starting times between 7:00am and 5:00pm.
• Evening classes start at 5:30pm or later, giving you the flexibility to work full time while also getting an education.
• Weekend classes typically meet for just a few hours on Saturday or Sunday, making them a great way to pursue an education if your workweek is already full.
• Extension site classes bring the classroom to you, providing opportunities in Brighton, Dexter, and Ypsilanti.
• Online Classes offer the ultimate in convenience by letting you learn where you want, when you want.
• Blended Classes reduce the amount of time you have to spend on campus because they combine classroom and online learning.
• LifeLong Learning classes, which are non-credit, help you do everything from exploring a hobby to meeting professional licensing requirements.
• GED classes help you prepare to take the GED test if you didn’t finish high school.
