UCC's Centre for Adult Continuing Education presents short courses programme for 2007/2008
13.09.2007

The Centre for Adult Continuing Education is pleased to present a newly augmented range of short courses for the academic year 2007/2008.

The courses cover a diverse spectrum from food history to creative writing; digital photography to family law; modern terrorism to art theory and life coaching to a psychological understanding of childhood and adolescence.

Short Course Co-ordinator, Regina Sexton explained: "Our selection process was guided by an intention to appeal to as a broad as possible a range of interests, concerns and needs. We hope, therefore, that from the courses on offer participants will meet, one, if not more, that serves to strengthen knowledge in an area of existing interest; if not, perhaps these courses will introduce a novel area of learning or they simply be a means to benefit professional development.

"The short courses afford the opportunity to showcase the work and interests of the University in a public forum and we invite participants to share in the excitement of this research and discovery. To this end, we would like to thank and acknowledge our many internal and external partners whose participation brings success and energy to our programmes", she added.

Whilst the courses are non-assessed, the aim is to engage participants in the rewards of lifelong learning with participation being the first step towards commitment to a more dedicated programme of education and self discovery.
