Staff Report
There is still time to register for spring classes at Allan Hancock College.
Hancock continues to offer a wide variety of semester-length and eight-week classes this spring. Classes begin the week of Jan. 21.
This spring, students can fulfill their general education requirements in several degree and certificate programs including administration of justice, machining and manufacturing technology, architecture, culinary arts, engineering technology and many more. Students taking spring classes can also earn credits to help them transfer and continue to pursue their education at a four-year university.
New students must first apply for admission to the college before registering for classes. Access to the online admission application is available via the college’s newly redesigned and easy-to-use website, www.hancockollege.edu. Registration for all Hancock classes is available via the myHancock portal linked in the upper right section of the college’s homepage.
In addition to classes for credit, members of the community can also register for noncredit and fee-based classes through Allan Hancock College’s Community Education program. More than 200 non-credit Community Education courses also begin the week of Jan. 21 and include English as a Second Language (ESL), vocational education, and preparation for GED and citizenship exams.
Community Education’s fee-based classes include beginning yoga, introduction to beekeeping, art journaling, symphonic band, and more.
