MCCD Education Program Registration Procedure
How do I register for the Education Programs?
To be processed in the lottery, registration requests must be received by the lottery deadline listed in the newsletter. Registration requests received by the lottery deadline are managed through a computer selection process, rather than a first-come, first-served basis. This is to ensure that all subscribers have received their Landscapes newsletter and have had time to submit their requests. Any in-county resident registration requests received after the lottery deadline and all out-of-county resident requests will then be processed on a first-come, first-served basis as program space allows.
Registration is required for all programs and is accepted at Prairieview Education Center in Crystal Lake. Copies of the registration form are acceptable as long as they are legible.

Please be aware that our programs are sometimes covered by the media and their photographers. On occasion, MCCD staff members or others contracted by MCCD may photograph or videotape participants during our programs and events or at our facilities. Those images taken by MCCD are for District use only and may be used in newsletters, brochures, flyers, or other promotional materials as well as the District’s website. You must give us written notice in advance if you or your family member do not want to be photographed and/or published.
Lottery
After the lottery is complete, a confirmation will be e-mailed and/or mailed to you to verify your space in the program or on the waiting list. Occasionally our programs require a nominal fee. Payment must accompany registration unless otherwise noted.
If I have questions on how to register or I need to cancel my registration, who should I contact?
Promptly call Prairieview Education Center at (815) 479-5779 so registrants on waiting lists can be contacted. An advance notice of 7 days is required to receive a refund.
