Sarah Weiben ' 04自2008年以来一直在为继续教育教授绘画课程. 韦本最初专注于俄罗斯研究，1991年开始追求她对艺术的兴趣. 在最近的一次采访中，维本在描述他们的CE课程时提到了这种职业转变:

许多人来到CE是因为他们在生命的早期就想要艺术，但由于某种原因决定不去追求它. But it has stayed with them. 因此，人们要么追求长期的兴趣，要么回到他们生命早期开始但没有完成的事情. 因为我接触艺术的时间比较晚，所以我觉得我是把他们带回来的合适人选.

Weiben also talked about how diverse their CE classes are, with students ranging from 18 years old to 80. 作为回应，微本希望在他们的课堂上营造一种氛围:

我试着让他们知道，他们在这里玩得开心，他们会得到支持和成长. 我向他们保证，即使在课堂上晚些时候，他们也会笑得很开心. And all of that sort of newbie anxiety just melts away.

Brian Britigan是一名插画讲师，自2020年以来一直在MCAD任教. 在一次采访中，谈到Brian教授继续教育课程的经验，他解释道; 

当我走进教室的时候，无论他们在哪里，我都试着和他们见面. 我有些学生可能在一个艺术实践中工作了40年, and they're experts in their area. And then there are folks who have dabbled in a sketchbook, enjoyed that process, and wanted to figure out what their next steps might be. 

我教过的CE课程真正了不起的是学生们相互交流的方式. 学生们非常有礼貌地与他们在一起的人见面，并帮助每个人进入下一步. 如果你是一个对自己的艺术经历或作品数量有自我意识的人, 我认为电子商务课程是一个很好的空间，可以尝试新事物，拓展你对自己的期望.

Brian’s encouragement for others to take CE courses is not unwarranted; he explains that community education courses are a way that he has built community and connections in his own artistic practice. Teaching was a natural progression. Brian has taught online, in-person, and hybrid courses, which means students are often local, but have come from all over the world. Brian has had students from across the U.S., as well as students located in Malaysia and Indonesia. Describing what to expect in  a CE course, Brian says 

Peer critique is a huge part of what I do. 我不喜欢在课堂上成为我传授给学生的唯一知识来源, but, instead, 我真的把它看作是一群有创造力的人一起合作项目的会议空间. We're bringing so many different skills to the table. We have graphic designers in the room, we have photographers in the room, we have comics artists in the room, and all of them are speaking languages that overlap a little bit, but are all coming from really unique perspectives.
