NEW YEAR,
NEW OPPORTUNITIES
We’re trying something new to
continuously improve
For the first time, we have combined spring and summer
noncredit classes into a single catalog! The College of Lake
County is recognized as a local and national leader in
sustainability and we are always seeking ways to improve
our impact on the environment. The paper reduction from
consolidating two editions of our catalog into one printed
piece is saving 196 trees!
With this new format, there’s more good news! You are also
receiving earlier access to our summer lineup of classes which
allows you to plan ahead before summer registration opens
on March 9. Additional summer classes will be added in the
coming months. For the most up-to-date list of offerings, stay
tuned to learn.clcillinois.edu

Rev your engine with truck driver
training – at no cost!
Full-tuition truck driving scholarships are back! Last year, an
anonymous donor gave the college more than $100,000 to
address the need for additional commercially-licensed truck
drivers on the road. Due to the success of the first round of
scholarships, the same generous donor has supplied another
$250,000 which will allow a minimum of 45 students to earn
their CDL license through CLC for free!
Take the fast lane to an in-demand career with a family-
sustaining wage. Sign up for an information session to apply
for this limited opportunity at www.clcillinois.edu/cdl

  Start your remote career in business development or recruiting!
  New eight-week virtual programs offer a support team and flexible training.
