Classes start at various times year round. Call (203) 431-9995 or click Sign Me Up! for registration information. For over 30 years Ridgefield Continuing Education has provided courses that contribute to people’s employment, wellness, practical skills, and enrichment. Our programs are funded solely by course tuition and we thank the Ridgefield and nearby residents who enroll in our programs for their support. We offer several hundred courses annually. These courses include computers, photography, real estate, house and garden, fitness, wellness, art, knitting, history, and many more topics. These courses are available to people age 18 and older that live in Ridgefield and neighboring communities. Please browse our course selection and let us know if you have any suggestions.The Continuing Education office is in the Venus Municipal Building (use the RVNA entrance off Governor St., across from the Police Station). This location houses the Continuing Education office, all day classes, and all day and evening computer classes, and some of the other evening classes. Evening classes are located in several school buildings.
