2026-2027 Catalog

The Community Enrichment Program (CEP) offers a wide variety of short-term, non-credit courses designed for learners of all ages and interests. Whether you want to explore a new hobby, sharpen your skills, or simply try something different, CEP provides engaging and affordable opportunities to learn, grow, and have fun.

Classes are offered year-round at our New Bern and Havelock campuses, in community locations, and occasionally online. They range from single-session workshops to multi-week experiences, with topics suitable for beginners as well as more advanced learners. Classes are generally offered within the following categories: Arts and Crafts, Kitchen and Cuisine, Language, and Recreation and Wellness. Please note that CEP courses are for personal enrichment and do not count toward college degree programs.

We welcome community involvement in shaping our offerings. If you have an idea for a new class—or expertise you’d like to share as an instructor—we’d love to hear from you. Popular categories include arts & crafts, kitchen & cuisine, language, recreation & wellness, and special interests.
