MONTGOMERY COUNTY HAS FIVE LIFE LONG LEARNING CENTERS


Through academic research it has been proven there are significant benefits associated with learning and social engagement. During this time when many continue to stay indoors we are thrilled to see our local life long learning organizations adapt their programs to virtual sessions. Also, you may be caring for a loved one who will appreciate a "no stress" opportunity to keep engaged. No need to dress up either!

Everyone now can enjoy non academic classes through lifelong learning non profit centers in the region. Generally classes are offered as single sessions at affordable prices. Their programs includes classes in: computer training, fitness, topical events, languages, history, music, health, guidance on successful aging and caregiver support.
