Cornwallis Road in Durham, and at a few offsite locations. These courses are marked with the school icon shown above. If you plan to enroll in an in-person course, please see the guidelines at learnmore.duke.edu/olli/person-guidelines before registering.

Online Learning

Taking courses online is both convenient and accessible. No need to worry about parking or traffic. With Zoom, you have a front-row seat for all your courses. These courses are marked with the Zoom icon shown above.

Many online courses are recorded for enrollees to watch later. You can even enroll in a course to only watch recordings. These are marked with the recording icon:
