List<SelectItem> sList = (List<SelectItem>)getExpSessionObj().getExpTypeList();

getExpSessionObj().getExpTypeList() is not returning a list of SelectItems, so you're getting a class-cast exception.

Once you stop sending non SelectItem objects to the List of SelectItems, you will stop getting a ClassCastException.

I could guess something else. Of course, if you told us which classes were causing the ClassCastException, it'd be more than a guess.
