All programs have online registration (via WebAdvisor), which is the fastest and most convenient method of registration. WebAdvisor is open to all students, new or returning. Walk-in or mail-in registration is also available. 

Please note: Processing of mail-in registrations begins at 8am on the first day of registration; registrations are manually entered in the order they were received. Early receipt of mail-in registrations does not guarantee placement in the desired class(es). If you are registering for a class that fills quickly, mail-in registration is not recommended.

In order to maintain instruction of the highest quality, and to be fair to all students who registered prior to the first class session, we are not able to allow registration into any class (with the exception of select physical fitness classes) once the class has started. To request an exception, contact the CEPD office during business hours. For any late registration, we are not able to pro-rate the class cost and our regular refund policy will still be in effect.

Unfortunately, due to the large number of classes that we handle in any given semester, we are unable to keep a waitlist. We suggest that you continually check our website for class additions and/or changes in enrollment.

No. You must register for any class you wish to attend.

You can drop a class for a full refund up to the day before the first class meets through WebAdvisor online or by written request.

• Through the day before the first class meets: 100 percent class fees.
• Thereafter—no refund.
• No refund or transfers for motorcycle classes.

The Schoolcraft College Student Code of Conduct and Resolution Process applies to all students pursuing credit and non-credit instruction at Schoolcraft College.  The Code can be viewed in full at http://www.schoolcraft.edu/college-policies/student-code-of-conduct

If a class lists a prerequisite, we strongly recommend that you take it. If you have taken similar classes at another location, or have previous experience that covers the content of the prerequisite, you may choose not to take the prerequisite. Students are encouraged to assess their skill level and select an appropriate class. If you would like an instructor to help you determine your skill level, please call 734-462-4448 or email cepd@schoolcraft.edu. CEPD reserves the right to recommend a student drop with a full refund if the instructor determines a registered student does not have the requisite skills to be successful.  

Our classes are intended for students 18 years of age and older, unless stated otherwise in the class title or class description. It is at the discretion of CEPD staff and the instructor to allow a student who is younger than 18 to enroll in a class.To inquire about approval, call 734-462-4448 or email cepd@schoolcraft.edu.

Register your child according to the age and/or grade level outlined for the class.  If your child is not enrolled in the appropriate age and/or grade level, we reserve the right to reassign your child to a more suitable class (if space is available) or deregister your child with a full refund.

Transfers are subject to approval from the Program Coordinator. Please contact the CEPD Department at 734-462-4448 or cepd@schoolcraft.edu, if you would like to request a transfer. You will be notified once a decision has been made. There is no guarantee that your transfer will be approved.

All participants of CEPD Physical Fitness classes must agree to the terms of the Schoolcraft College Waiver of Liability - Fitness Classes at the time of registration. Review waiver before registering. Your registration signifies agreement to the waiver terms.

If you see the textbook symbol at the end of the class description, you will need a textbook. If a class has an optional textbook, it will be stated within the class description. If a class fee includes the cost of the textbook, it will also be stated within the class description and are typically handed out on the first day of class. If you see a USB symbol, it means that you need a flash/thumb drive. Textbooks and flash/thumb drives are available for purchase in the Bookstore. For more information, call (734) 462-4409 or visit the Bookstore’s website. You must present a copy of your current schedule to purchase books.

Please contact our Bookstore at 734-462-4409 or send an email to books@schoolcraft.edu.

The College reserves the right to cancel any class if the enrollment is low or for other valid reasons. The College may change the day, time of day or location of a class. In the event of a class cancellation or change prior to the start of the semester, students will be contacted and may select another class or request a full refund. Refunds will be returned in the method of which they were originally made. Cash payments will be returned by check.

A notice will be placed on our website and be sent to the local news media. It will be broadcast in the same manner as K-12 school closings.

Yes. Every effort will be made to schedule a make-up when a class has been cancelled due to inclement weather, instructor illness or any other college emergency. However, we cannot guarantee makeup hours for classes canceled as a result, nor can we provide refunds. Your instructor will be notified if/when a make-up class is scheduled, and he/she will then notify the students at their next class. If the make-up class is imminent, the CEPD Office staff will notify the students by phone and/or email.

No. You may only attend a class to which you are registered for.

CEUs are Continuing Education Units. They are different from traditional college credits in that they do not count towards a college degree. Some organizations require that their employees obtain a certain number of CEUs to maintain a professional license and/or to qualify for financial reimbursement. One (1) CEU represents ten (10) class hours of instruction. For example, a class that meets for a total of 24 hours offers 2.4 CEUs.

CEPD classes are graded on a pass/fail basis. Students who pass a class will receive a ‘Y’ grade while students who do not pass will receive an ‘N’ grade. To receive a passing grade (and be awarded CEUs), students will need to attend 100% of a class that meets eight hours or less, or attend 90% of a class that meets nine hours or more. NOTE: If the State of Michigan requires 100% attendance to award CEUs for a particular class (e.g. Teacher Recertification, Nursing, etc.), that requirement overrides CEPD requirements.

You will need to inform your instructor on the first day of class that you wish to receive a grade based on the point system rather than a Y/N. If you do not inform the instructor on the first day of class, you may not be able to receive a grade in this format.

If you believe the grade you are issued is incorrect, please contact your instructor first for clarification. Grade changes must be  approved by the instructor and made within one year of date of issue.

Unless it is a specially designated class (e.g. Dementia Care), you will not receive a certificate stating that you have completed a class. For proof of class completion, please visit WebAdvisor to view or print your unofficial transcript. 

To request an official copy of your transcript to send to potential employers or other educational institutions, visit WebAdvisor where you can access the online Transcript Ordering Center. If you have questions regarding official or unofficial transcripts, please contact our Records Office at 734-462-4677.

We are only able to provide you with an instructor’s contact information if they have authorized us to do so. If not, we will take your contact information and pass it along to them.

It is the student’s responsibility to notify the college of any changes to name, address, phone or email as this information is used to send class confirmation or to contact you regarding changes in class status.

Students may change their address, phone number, and emergency contact information online in WebAdvisor. Login to WebAdvisor Go to the student menu, and click on View my Account. From there, select User Options from the grey menu on the left side. You will then be able to update your personal data and emergency contact information. If you are changing your address to a resident area, please see Legal Residence Definition for what is needed to provide residency.

Please note CEPD students may alternatively update their contact information by completing the top portion of the CEPD Registration/Admission Form. Completed CEPD Registration/Admission Forms should be submitted to the Registration Center for processing. If you are doing a name change, please bring in proof of the name change (i.e. driver’s license, marriage license, or court documents) to the Registration Center in the McDowell Student Center, MC130 or contact the CEPD office at 734-462-4448 or cepd@schoolcraft.edu.
