ALI Class Assistant

What is the CA column on the registration form?  Can I do this?   Yes you can!!!  Becoming a Class Assistant is a fun way of becoming a part of this wonderful organization of learners and also taking classes with ALI.  You get to meet your fellow classmates and help the instructor.  You will receive a bag of supplies and instructions about using them for your specific class.  Please consider signing up as a CA by checking the box for your class of choice.

ALI Class Fees

ALI is committed to providing high quality, low cost learning experiences geared toward the interests of adults in the Western Washtenaw community.  You can select from a diverse set of educational classes, learn in a friendly atmosphere and meet new friends with common interests!

Class fees begin at $20 for a single session, and additional sessions are charged an incremental fee depending on the total number of sessions. We have eliminated the administration fee that we used to charge, but some classes may require additional fees for class materials or supplies.

Financial Assistance

If cost is prohibiting your enrollment, we encourage you to inquire about our assistance program. For information about the eligibility requirements and application procedures, please contact us via mail/email. Alternatively, phone 734.292.5540 to leave a message. All assistance information is kept confidential.
