Please see detailed information about Tuition Remission Policies here

There are two registration options:

1) At the start of registration, eligible staff members may guarantee their seat in a CCA Extension course by paying for the course with a 20 percent discount.

2) Alternatively, staff members may wait until the weekday before the start of the CCA Extension course to register with a 100 percent tuition remission, but only if there are empty seats available (as determined by the Office of Youth Programs and Continuing Education). Lab fees will still need to be collected and payment can be made by contacting Extension@cca.edu

On occasion, a seat may not be available until just before the second class meeting, in which case the staff member will not know until then that they are authorized to join the course. If there are multiple 100 percent tuition-remission applicants for the same course, enrollment will be on a first- come, first-served basis

Tuition remission can now be requested in Workday by eligible employees! An updated policy can also be found on the portal. To apply for tuition remission for a regular semester or courses, please follow these directions:

1. Log into Workday.
2. In the search bar at the top of the page, type in "create request"
3. In the drop down menu, type "tuition" and hit enter.
4. Complete and submit the form in Workday

All required consumable materials are to be purchased by students (unless otherwise noted as included in the course tuition).
