Your best bet is going to be a local college (comunity, sometimes called a Trade or Tech school). Without one of those, your only option will be to find a mechanic who knows their salt and is willing to teach you one on one. I know I've personally done that before with new riders wanting to know how to perform basic maintenance like valve adjustments, bleeding brake systems, changing out chain and sprockets, etc. It'll almost certainly be cheaper than any organized class, and you'll get better instruction so long as you do the research to find the best mechanic in your area.
Good luck.

Actually, the basics of the two projects that you mention aren't that complicated. If you have the mechanical aptitude, the desire and a shop manual there is no reason to be afraid to just give it a shot and go for it. If you have been doing business with a local shop, give them a call, tell them what your up to and ask if they mind a phone call or two if you get stuck. They won't.
99% of the riders and racer that I know and have known over the years did just that on their first 2 stroke top end job. They are surprisingly simple with only a few moving parts and few if any special tools needed to complete the job.
There's enough knowledgeable and helpful folks right hear on Yahoo Answers, if you can sift through the BS, to help you get the job done too.

2 strokes are real easy to learn as they have only 3 main moving moving parts to the engine, the piston , con-rod and crankshaft.
but getting them to run right is a different story, I suggest trying the International Correspondence school they do most of the courses you require and it is all done in terms you can understand and you set your own pace with a diploma at the end if you pass, i get my apprentices to do these courses as well as their normal ones just to keep their mind on what they are trying to learn, and it gives you the basics in 2 stroke and 4 stroke along with hydraulics and brake systems
