Reputation matters
The U of A’s Faculty of Extension is widely regarded among business and government leaders for its ability to provide professional education that responds to the evolving industry needs.
I like how you have some flexibility with your learning pace while also keeping to an established timeline.
Local Authority Administration (NACLAA II) Advanced Certificate student
I enjoyed the excellent instructors, the camaraderie of my fellow students, and how this pushed me to expand my abilities.
Visual Arts student
I was very impressed with the lectures: the instructor generously shared her own L2 learner’s experiences with us and the teacher’s attitudes she showed us today came from her own experiences.
English Medium Instruction student
I learned a lot about teaching methods, education technologies, and pronunciations. Especially, it is still not common in Japan to use those education technologies, I think they are very useful and helpful for both teachers and students.
English Medium Instruction student
The assignments were thought-provoking, always encouraging us to consider multiple solutions to a problem.
Business Analysis Certificate student
The course outlines and assignments are great.
Social Media Certificate student
All instructors were extremely well versed in their fields. But one of them — a senior lawyer with the Alberta Government who taught a course on OHS law — was incredibly impressive.
The program really helped me build a network to support my career. It was life-changing for me.
