WELCOME TO THE CONTINUING EDUCATION GUIDE FOR WINTER 2022! MESSAGE FROM COLLEGE PRESIDENT

What is Continuing Education? Generally, Continuing Education courses are short-term opportunities for you to learn something new or to enhance your industry or business skills. Some courses are offered in one short evening session, while others, like our full Activity Assistant, Birth Doula Studies, Special Event Planning, and Haul Truck Operator programs take place over a number of weeks or months.

Each of our seven campuses offers a selection of courses or programs! See a course or a program offered at one of the other campuses in a community you don’t live in? Maybe book a weekend away and sign up for it! Or if you are really interested but can’t manage travelling to the other campus, call your local campus and express interest in seeing if it’s possible to bring that course

Hello and welcome to 2022!
