Time flies when you are having fun, and also when you are learning with WISE!
Next week is the last week for many of our Session A courses. Be sure to check your class schedule hereto confirm final class dates. [Notably, Monday classes are on a slightly different schedule.]
Session B starts October 29 and once again, there are so many wonderful courses to choose from. There is still time to read through the course descriptions and pick your favorites: Fall 2026 Course Catalog
