Welcome to Fall!

Did you know that the word October originates from Latin for the number eight? October was the eighth month in the Roman calendar!

The days are gradually getting shorter and we relish the soft crunch of the fallen leaves beneath our step and the sweet breath of cool air that harkens us to reminisce the magic of glowing pumpkins, warm hearths, and animated children transformed into princesses and superheroes. Join us as we celebrate October and check out what’s new and exciting for the Office of Extension and Culture!

Enhance your Professional Development skills or develop some new ones with our upcoming Program Evaluation for Professionals. Career Transitions, Skills for Professional Success, or Fundamentals of Cybersecurity courses. Check out a variety of certificate courses that we offer in partnership with Mount Royal University and discover opportunities to learn more about an exciting culture with Chinese Society: People & Government, our new Introduction to Coptic Studies course, or explore how to cultivate deeper peace, focus, and self-inquiry in Yoga Beyond The Mat. 

This year marks an important celebration for Concordia University of Edmonton. Check out 100 years of our history, stories, and photo gallery! 
In this edition you can also find upcoming CELPIP dates and meet featured OEC course instructors.
