night class

After-dark instruction

A night class is a course held in the evening, typically for students who work during the day.

Community colleges and universities offer night classes to accommodate adult learners balancing education with jobs or family responsibilities: She's taking a night class in accounting.

The term evokes continuing education and self-improvement pursued after regular hours.
