Malaspina University College
Since its inception, Malaspina University-College has demonstrated a strong commitment and innovative approaches in working with businesses and communities to meet the occupational and personal continuing education needs of adult learners throughout the region. Through its efforts, the institution serves thousands of life long learners, from teens to elders, each year.
In the New Year, Malaspina will begin a new institutional approach to organizing and delivering programs and services to life long learners. On January 1, Malaspina's Learning Connections will officially change its name to Continuing Education. Following this, on January 23, the institution will officially launch the Centre for Continuing Studies to expand its services to adult learners in the
University-College region and beyond. The Centre for Continuing Studies is intended to enhance Malaspina's contribution to regional economic, social and cultural development, and will reinforce long-standing partnerships and build new ones. For further information click, "About the Centre".
Continuing Education staff at regional campuses will continue to work actively with their communities to ensure that local educational and training needs are being addressed. The Centre will build on this local delivery by working closely with faculties, regional campuses and other units within the institution catalyzing the institutional resources to meet broader emerging human resource needs. It will also strengthen the connections with community groups, private sector and professional organizations, governments at all levels, and a wide range of individuals and voluntary agencies. It's part of a long-term strategy to educate and train people of all ages for new 'economic driver' industries envisioned to contribute to prosperity in the region.
