Extended Education
Extended Education is an academic unit of the University that offers continuing and professional programming to lifelong learners. We offer a diversity of University continuing education courses and programs which include micro credentials i.e., Micro-Certificates, Letters of Accomplishment and Letters of Participation, as well as more comprehensive programs, such as Certificate programs. These offers are designed to meet the needs of a wide spectrum of lifelong learners. We also offer programming that provides support for Indigenous and newcomer University students as well as for students admitted to the University in General Studies. We work in partnership with industry, government, U of M faculties and departments, as well as community organizations, to develop high quality programming that is responsive, accessible, and socially progressive.
