Transformations

a history of UBC Continuing Studies

"Over the past 100 years, the University of British Columbia has played a vital role in the economic, social, and cultural life of our province. For 75 of those years, leading edge continuing education programs at UBC have helped transform the lives of adult learners and provided members of our communities access to the rich educational resources of the university. This book highlights the significant impact of continuing education programs within the historical development of UBC. From extension lectures in 1936 to the expansive breadth of offerings available through UBC Continuing Studies and UBC's faculty-based continuing education units in 2012, adult learning has played an important role throughout the history of our university and province."--Page 9.
