Additional Information

Corporate and Customized Training

Workforce and Continuing Education partners with businesses and other organizations within our service area to identify specific employee or team development needs and create a targeted plan for addressing these needs. Whether we are identifying training needs, customizing a specific course for your employees, facilitating meetings, offering one-on-one coaching, or working on strategic planning, we are here to help.

For-profit businesses may also consider applying for a grant, which may cover all or part of the costs of training.

Temple College Workforce and Continuing Education has a long-standing history of success in helping our corporate clients – whether large or small – obtain grant funding for training we provide.

Refund Policy

Upon written request to the Division of Business and Continuing Education, and

  • For classes meeting more than two sessions, a 100% refund will be granted if requested prior to the second class meeting. After the class has met a second time, no refund will be granted.
  • For classes meeting two sessions or less, a 100% refund will be granted if requested prior to the start of class.

Courses that incur administrative and materials costs may only be eligible for reduced refunds, depending on costs incurred by the college. An administrator must approve exceptions to the tuition refund policy.

If Temple College cancels a class, a 100% refund will be granted. A class is cancelled when insufficient enrollment occurs. To help avoid class cancellations, paid registrations are required at least 48 hours prior to the first class day. The Business and Continuing Education Division makes every effort to notify students if a class will not be held due to a cancellation.

What are CEUs?

Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are nationally recognized to record satisfactory completion of certain approved occupationally related programs. Generally one CEU is awarded for each 10 contact hours of instruction included in a specified continuing education program or activity. Successful completion is grade and attendance-based. Eighty percent attendance is required for most classes, but some require 100 percent attendance. Individuals who register for and successfully complete our courses are awarded CEUs.

Mirror Classes

Did you know that you can take some college credit courses as continuing education credit (CEU) classes? These are called mirror classes and provide a number of benefits for those who want to build their work-related knowledge and skills without working on a degree plan.
