Center for Learning in Retirement (CLR)

The Center for Learning in Retirement is a membership organization, open to retired and semi-retired adults (age 50 and over), who enjoy intellectual stimulation and the opportunity to meet new friends. There are short-term courses, often led by members, covering a wide-range of topics, including art, computers, history, sciences, health and wellness, special interests, and more. There are no tests, no grades, and no homework!

Most classes are held at the Bell School Road Center (3350 N. Bell School Road, Rockford, IL 61114) on the southwest corner of Bell School and Spring Brook Roads. Some classes are offered online via Zoom each semester too. Looking for fun and adventure? There are day trips to museums, arboretums, art exhibits, and the theater, scheduled social events, and extended trips.
