UD’s lifelong learning classes offered online and in person this fall

The University of Delaware's lifelong learning program is restarting selected on-site classes in New Castle, Kent and Sussex Counties this fall, while maintaining a sizeable online presence. Classes start Tuesday, Sept. 7, with registration available through Monday, Aug.16.

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at UD is a volunteer-based learning cooperative for adults age 50-plus to take and teach classes together with no grades, exams or educational prerequisites. This year, UD’s program became the largest OLLI in the U.S., enrolling participants from at least 25 states.

Approximately 300 OLLI courses will be offered online or in-person this fall in subjects such as American Sign Language, guitar, history of ships, genealogy, investing for retirement, folk dance, racism in America, stained glass, understanding Alzheimer’s, world-changing inventions, yoga and more.

Classes are held online, and in Bridgeville, Dover, Lewes, Ocean View and Wilmington, Delaware. OLLI is open to all new and previous members, and there is no difference in registration costs and fees for Delaware and non-Delaware participants.

Participants can sign up for in-person classes, online classes, or a combination of both.

Pre-registration for fall courses is available through Aug. 16, with registration reopening on Monday, Aug. 30, for classes with open seats.
