Civic Education
Online Enrollment Now Available!
Residents can now register for Glendale University 101 and the Homeowners Association Academy from the comfort of their own homes by using the city’s new Community Education Internet Application System. Users will be able to create their own online profiles and select the classes they interested in attending from the buttons at the bottom of the page. The new system will also keep track of all the classes you have attended via a password you create. Once you have selected your classes, a report is sent to the Neighborhood Services Coordinator registering you for the class! (Mailed in and faxed applications will still be accepted.)

Glendale University Alumni Association
If you are one of the nearly 900 people who have graduated from Glendale University, then you are also an alumni of the program. The new GU Alumni Association is a way for alumni to stay in touch with the city and each other, learn about events, programs and services and exchange information.
GU Alumni will be receiving more information about the Alumni Association and their membership cards soon.
Glendale University Alumni Graduate Diploma
Many of our GU Alumni have continued learning about the City of Glendale by taking additional classes through our GU Graduate program. The City of Glendale would like to recognize the continued learning accomplishments of our alumni and are now also offering a graduate diploma.
To qualify for a graduate diploma, you must have completed GU 101. In addition, you must also have completed five Graduate program classes over the last 5 calendar years.
To receive your diploma, please complete the following application form and return it to the Neighborhood Partnership Office. Staff will review your application and verify your eligibility. A graduate diploma will then be sent you recognizing your further learning accomplishments with the City of Glendale. Graduate diploma recipients may also be recognized at other city functions or events.
HOA Training
For many of us, our homes are our biggest asset. Protecting that investment is important. That’s why the City of Glendale launched the HOA Training Academy a few years ago—so that Glendale residents could learn more about how to effectively and legally operate their homeowners association (HOA).
This informative course is offered twice a year and is taught by industry professionals, including lawyers, CPA’s and management company specialists. Topics for each of the eight sessions vary, which allows busy residents to attend selected sessions relating to their area of individual responsibility or to all the classes. A review of Arizona HOA law and discussion of anticipated changes also is part of the agenda.
