A variety of continuing studies courses and programs are offered for daytime, evening and weekend participation. There are no prerequisites for admission to non-credit courses, but a certain level of proficiency is required for some credit courses.
The majority of continuing studies offerings in the Division of Student Development are an outgrowth of UCC's career/vocational programs. Courses and programs are drawn from the areas of college preparation, English as a second language, career development, counselling, athletics, cooperative and career education.
Contract services provide career development and training opportunities for organizations, businesses, the public sector and First Nation Bands using a wide range and high level of educational resources available through UCC. Flexible, cost-effective training is provided by knowledgeable instructors in the classroom or on site in the workplace.
Continuing studies staff also work with International Education to provide short-term ESL programs. Various employment training and other programs funded through the Provincial and Federal governments may also be developed and administered through the division.
