Learning is a lifelong journey. Schoolcraft College’s Personal & Professional Learning (PPL) department offers a wide variety of non-credit classes to help you bolster your career, support a hobby or just try something new.
Whether you’re interested in gaining new skills for work, learning a new language or improving your health, we can help. If you don’t have something specific in mind, just scan through our wide-ranging class offerings – we’re sure you’ll find something!
We hope to see you in person in our warm and welcoming classrooms and facilities, but if you’d rather learn from home, that’s OK, too. Many classes offer both on-site and virtual options.
It’s easy to become a PPL student, either by registering online, in person, through the mail or using our secure dropbox.
In response to COVID-19, Schoolcraft College reserves the right to change the learning modality of select PPL classes. PPL will notify the students by phone and/or email if a learning modality change is made to their class. Please direct questions to the PPL office at 734-462-4448 or [email protected].

“I believe you can never learn enough. Our advice would be to keep on learning because it keeps the mind going. Taking classes has given us something to always look forward to, and as long as classes are offered, we’re going to continue to take them.”
