About Us
All course offerings are subject to a minimum enrollment and classes may be added
upon request. Please feel free to call us or check back on this site for changes and
updates.
We offer several types of courses in the Continuing Education Department. Students
do not have to go through the admission process to register for our classes and can
gain Continuing Education Unit Credits or take classes for Personal Enrichment. Our
courses are available to enhance lifelong learning and make new learning opportunities
available.
Co-Enrollment Courses
A Co-Enrollment Course is a Continuing Education course which meets at the same time
and place as an existing college credit course. Enrollment is based upon space availability and where applicable, completion
of appropriate assessment and counseling. Co-Enrollment students earn CEU's when applicable,
not college credit. The advantage of a CEU course is that you don't have to go through
the admission process to take a co-enrollment class. If you want college credit, you
must seek admission to Panola College as a credit student. Students taking Co-Enrollment
courses do not apply for formal admission to Panola College, nor are they required
to take the Texas Success Initiative Assessment. Attendance at all class sessions
and participation in classroom lecture/discussion and evaluation is expected. To register
for a Co-Enrollment Continuing Education course: determine the course and section
that you would like to attend, register for the course at the Workforce Office in
Carthage or at the site where the course is offered, tuition is charged at the in-district
rate and lab fees are added, proceed to the scheduled class meeting, and enjoy!
Payments
Tuition may be paid by cash, check (a returned check fee of $30.00 will apply), money order, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover. Checks should be made payable to Panola College.

New Scholarships Offered For Certificate Programs
Scholarships are now being offered for several of our CE programs. Students will need to have applications submitted two weeks prior to the first class day. The amount of the scholarship will aide the student up to 25% of the total cost of the programs they choose. The programs that qualify for the scholarships include the following:
Students can submit an online application using the following link: Scholarship Application
Class Cancellation
Panola College reserves the right to cancel any course if enrollment is insufficient. However, the college will make every attempt to prevent undue hardship on students. The decision to conduct or cancel a class is made immediately prior to the first day of class. This provides every opportunity for sufficient enrollment.
Refund Policy
If Panola College Workforce and Continuing Education cancels a course, a full tuition refund will be made. A 100% refund will be issued if you drop a course through the approved means of notification during our normal business hours two business days prior to the first scheduled class day.
All refunds will be calculated based on the date of the request and in accordance with the Panola College Workforce and Continuing Education refund policy.
There may be some courses for which refunds cannot be made. A refund will take at least two weeks to process and will be mailed to the student's listed permanent address.
Class Withdrawal
Any student who is enrolled in a CEU/Funded Course on the census date (third class date) should be included on the Certified Roll regardless of attendance. Any student who has paid for the course and has not completed a Withdrawal/Refund Request is considered enrolled.
Any student who wishes to withdraw from a course and receive a refund must complete a Withdrawal/Refund Request. To withdraw formally from a Continuing Education class, a student must notify the office in writing by e-mail (ce@panola.edu), by phone (903-693-2067), or in person at the Panola College Workforce and Continuing Education office.
Online Classwork
Expected Time Requirement for these course:
Students are expected to spend three to four hours a week: reading, reviewing, and
