1. Continuing Education - An Option for a Diverse Range
of People
Today, the term continuing education can be applied to a variety of situations
and a variety of people. Those who are returning to school after having
completed high school and taking a break from school are considered continuing
education students. Professionals who are experts in their field but are looking
to upgrade their skills to keep up with technology may benefit from continuing
education. Students who wish to study remotely or on-campus during evenings
are considered part of the continuing education umbrella.
Centennial College's School of Continuing Education caters to all of these
students (nearly 22,000 of them every year) through its 160 programs that
feature 1,200 courses and a 97 per cent learner satisfaction. At Centennial
College, continuing education study options include part-time, evening,
weekend, online and alternative format courses — all of which are designed to
help students improve their skills, further their education and pursue a variety
of interests.
For example, one popular continuing education method is Distance Learning,
which is offered in an online learning format that is instructor-led but allows
students to complete course material and assignments in their own time and
space, with 24- hour access to the online classroom. Another option is Print
Based Courses. For this continuing education method, correspondence or print
based courses (PB) offer students the ability to work at their own paces,
typically within a six-month time frame. Print-based courses are best suited for
students who work independently with minimal supervision. In most cases, both
delivery methods (online & PB) require students to attend the campus towards
the end of their class to write a continuing education final exam.
The more traditional way of attending Centennial College's School of Continuing
Education is to attend class on-campus during the evenings on a part-time
basis. This option is for students who enjoy learning face-to-face with their
instructor, interacting with peers, partaking in group and class projects or
require a more hands-on approach.
