Explore Continuing and Professional Education at the University of Alberta's Faculty of Extension. We can help you boost your existing career, or embark on a new one. Upskill, reskill, or learn for fun with over 300 courses and 40 professional programs to choose from. Our courses, seminars, and programs are developed by subject matter experts, leading researchers, and industry partners, and they are delivered by industry leaders currently working in their fields.

The main hubs within the Art and Design area are our Residential Interiors and our Visual Arts programs. But you’ll also find here series like the Indigenous Visual Literacy and an always renewed portfolio of individual workshops. What’s best: you may enrol in courses and unleash your inner artist even if you don’t wish to invest in a full program.

Extension’s Business and Leadership area has no shortage of programs, series, courses, and workshops to help you move your career forward. If a business skill is in demand in the workplace, you can learn it here. There is much to browse and find out, so take your time and check out the wealth of options we have to offer.

Being an effective communicator is a must-have skill no matter what industry you work in. Our Writing and Communications area has a robust portfolio of courses that will help you excel in your written and oral communication skills. In addition, we offer content aimed at professional communicators, such as our Social Media certificate and many courses focused on the tools of the trade. Languages courses (French, Spanish, and others) are also grouped within this area.

Environmental planning and management are the core focus of our Environmental Studies area. Join the growing number of environmental professionals in Alberta and across Canada as you learn from our four specialized certificates in Soil Science, Water Resource Management, Land Reclamation, and Environmental Remediation. We also offer learning opportunities in trenchless technologies and geostatistics.

Become a registered professional and have an impactful career in workplace health and safety through the programs in our Health, Safety, and Wellness area. We offer a certificate and a professional diploma in Occupational Health and Safety, which provide students not only with highly respected educational credentials but also with a clear path for professional accreditation. For a short-term update on a specific area, you may also check out our Workplace Wellness Leadership series.

The University of Alberta and Yellowhead Tribal College (YTC) are pleased to announce a partnership to jointly deliver the Faculty of Extension’s Indigenous programs: Indigenous Community-Industry Relations certificate (ICIR) and Indigenous Community Engagement citation (ICE).
This agreement brings together the knowledge systems of both institutions, their expertise and wisdom in their respective teaching areas, and their desire to work together for the provision of continuing education.

The programs within our Public Sector area prepare learners to find a career path in different areas and levels of government administration. The NACLAA certificates will help you get what you need for starting or advancing a career in local government; the IAPP certificate focuses on the administration of information access and privacy legislation; and the ALUP certificate supports professionals in municipal government planning and development. Also make sure to check out our short series on Planning for Diverse Environments, as well as the City-Building and Community Engagement series.

Our Technology and Innovation programming area offers software training on a broad range of applications, from Excel and MS Project to InDesign and SketchUp. We also teach languages like R and Python, as well as skill-based courses focused on big data, analytics, managing IT projects, data science, and more.

Learning a language is more than making unusual sounds and learning a new alphabet. It’s about communicating and understanding — it is a cultural experience. Gain an edge on the expanding global market and connect with new people through developing competence in a second language.
