Programs Especially for Online Learners
UBC Continuing Studies has been at the forefront of online learning for professional and personal development for over a decade.
We offer a variety of courses and programs for adult learners in 100% online and blended delivery (combines face-to-face and online components). You benefit from a university-level curriculum that has been researched and developed by UBC instructors and subject matter experts. The curriculum continues to be updated as techniques, business strategies and technologies evolve.
Whether you are taking a 100% online or a blended course, you are not learning alone. Participants support one another as they are challenged to carefully consider course concepts, leading to a better understanding of the material. Your online curriculum may consist of lectures, case studies, resources, research papers and more, all delivered through a learning management system.
