The fall calendar for continuing education at Vancouver Island University outlines an array of certificate, diploma and general interest courses from management skills for supervisors to an introduction to night skies.
The calendar, which is available in print and online, also provides details on free information sessions for prospective students to learn about programs such as American sign language, esthetics and foundations in mental health.
Popular ElderCollege programs are outlined including the Saturday Speakers Series which focuses on travel.
The university continues to offer a wide range of opportunities and online options during a period of transition for continuing education.
“Our commitment to providing you accessible and meaningful lifelong learning opportunities has not changed,” said Dave Witty, vice-president, academic and provost. “If you are looking for career advancement, academic fulfillment, or simply love learning, you will find a wealth of inspiration in this booklet.”
