SOME IDEAS NEED A LITTLETIME TO DEVELOPLIFE IS A HEALTHY MIX OF LEARNING & DOINGFind your own balance with over 200 courses and programs2012 FALL CALENDAR www.LearningThatShapes.ca/Fall

Learning that shapes Welcome to learning that shapes you and your world who you are. Life is a healthy mix of learning and doing. First, you absorb the theory and then you put it into practice. Everything you will find in this calendar is based on this balance—whether it applies to your career development, your academic goals or the learning you engage in just for fun. For example, we offer certificate and diploma programs that are academically rigorous and grounded in solid theory, but which also allow you to test what you’re learning in real, hands-on projects. In a program like Restoration of Natural Systems, for instance, you will get your hands (and feet) dirty on field projects that take your experience in the classroom into real-life situations. In the Public Relations program you will be taught by industry professionals and build a network of contacts that will benefit your career growth. Other courses will provide you with the same opportunities to practice what you learn, whether you are learning a new language, learning to identify birds, learning to draw or developing your photography skills. Have fun this fall with a mix of learning and doing that will shape your outlook on life! Join us for a day of fun on Saturday, September 29 UVic is celebrating its 50th anniversary starting with a festival on the UVic campus. It’s open to everyone in the community. We hope you will join in the fun and visit the Continuing Studies tent while you are here. Meet program staff, find out about new courses, win prizes! For more information about the festival events, please visit www.uvic.ca/anniversary/festival/ This calendar is also available on our website in a user-friendly interactive format—nothing to download, just turn the pages and click on a course title to get to registration.
