Learners at the University of Victoria are passionate about their education. In Continuing Studies at UVic, we collaborate with diverse academic faculties to provide continuing professional education. Through these partnerships, we integrate our expertise in professional development and training with the most recent research and innovations from UVic faculties.
We also seek collaborations with post-secondary institutions in Canada and beyond to expand opportunities for our learners, broaden our reach and impact, and foster a global academic community.

Testimonials
The DCS team offered crucial support to navigate administrative hurdles, as well as the key expertise I needed to design effective learning experiences for diverse learners. The students are excited about the courses and are actively applying their learning in their lives and careers, and the program is deepening ties with community partners who are engaging in effective climate action. It’s been a model of efficient and creative partnership, and I am thrilled with how the collaboration supported me to pivot my teaching and research towards the challenges posed by climate change.
Collaborating with the Division of Continuing Studies has led to the successful development and delivery of our Mapping with Drones micro-credential program. DCS has helped us reach students from industry, government and academia, as well as hobbyists looking to learn new skills. We’ve received positive feedback from students on the organization and delivery of our courses, which is in large part thanks to the hard work put in by DCS staff. We’re now looking to develop a suite of additional courses with them to expand our curriculum offerings.
